Various locations in New York City
DAY 1. The mobil art installation conceived by Angel Orensanz and curated by Jan Van Woensel and Greggory Bradford has run today a predefined itinerary through the art crowded time and space of Manhattan. It was launched shortly after midday from the doors of the Angel Orensanz Foundation in Lower Manhattan; to move swiftly to Fifth Avenue and 36 St. to the Volta Art Fair. Then it bounced Northwest to the piers over the Hudson into the Armory Art Fair. To then take a sudden turn Southwest to the Chelsea Art Museum, the stage for a great video art display. People have approached the moving silvery shuttle first with curiosity and then in a participatory mode: taking seats inside the shuttle to watch a pure Orensanz burning universe of video black holes and wall displays; then joining in a choreography of movement and poetry, instigated by the crew of the shuttle itself.
