Items related to High Art: Public Art on the High Line
The definitive book on High Line art, the public art program on the High Line, one of the most popular destinations in New York City. High Art surveys the first five years of art on the High Line, the unique elevated park in New York City created through the repurposing of an abandoned railway line. Since 2009, when the High Line was opened to the public, nineteen million visitors have been witness to more than 100 public art projects animating the grounds of this unique "park in the sky." The works include sculpture, installation, billboards, video, performance, and sound works by a range of artists, from established figures such as John Baldessari, El Anatsui, Maurizio Cattelan, Gilbert & George, and Ed Ruscha, to critically acclaimed mid-career artists such as Carol Bove, Sarah Sze, and Mark Grotjahn. The High Line is steadily broadening the audience for contemporary art while pushing the boundaries of traditional public art programs. This beautifully illustrated volume features the High Line s diverse projects thematically, including full-color images and short texts on the various projects, along with an introduction by curator Cecilia Alemani; an essay on the High Line s effect on Chelsea, the neighborhood cultural hub where it is located; and a roundtable discussion about public art today.

Review:
"[High Art] details the history of art on the High Line, which continues to thrillingly achieve [High Line Curator and Director] Alemani's goals, from group shows and film screenings to live performances and participatory events . . . The large-size paperback also includes a round-table discussion between Alemani and several other curators of public art that takes a fascinating view of how the discipline is changing and how the art is commissioned and perceived."

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. High Art: Public Art on the High Line surveys the first five years of art on the High Line, the unique elevated park in New York City created through the repurposing of an abandoned railway line. Since its inception in 2009-the same year the High Line was opened to the public - the five million visitors a year have been witness to more than eighty public art projects animating the grounds of this unique "park in the sky," including sculpture, installation, billboards, video, performance, and sound works. Engaging a range of artists from established figures such as John Baldessari, Maurizio Cattelan, Gilbert and George, and Trisha Brown to critically acclaimed emerging artists like Carol Bove, Sarah Sze, and El Anatsui, the program is steadily broadening the audience for contemporary art while pushing the boundaries of how we understand public art functions in the cultural landscape. This beautifully illustrated volume will feature the High Line's diverse projects thematically, across the four platforms that comprise the program, which include: High Line Commissions (artwork made specifically for the High Line); High Line Billboard; High Line Channel (the video program); and High Line Performance. Rounding out the color images, in addition to short texts on the various art projects, the book will feature an introduction by curator Cecilia Alemani, an essay on the High Line's effect on Chelsea, the neighborhood cultural hub where it is located. The definitive book on High Line art, the public art program on the High Line, one of the most popular destinations in New York City.
