who: kenya (robinson) and jerome marshak
what:
(in the artists' words) we are mounting a one-night intervention at a famous cultural institution. by using elements of the actual space (staircase) and a curious collection of materials (metronomes, laser pointers, vinyl decals, and people) we will create a choreography of unlikely interactions that speak to the accessibility of fine art, race and expectation.
