By removing the barriers of the museum environment and placing the works in the context of the public sphere, a wider audience was granted access that they otherwise might not have. And while at its core, the effort may have been one giant (repackaged) advertisement for the museum, the end result offered viewers so much more. Now in a new short film directed by Azazel Jacobs titled IRead more...]]> http://www.psfk.com/2009/04/patrick-blanc-talks-about-his-vertical-gardens.html Mon, 27 Apr 2009 18:59:31 +0000 In the Talking Heads song Nothing but Flowers David Byrne describes a dystopian future where plants and vegetation have overpowered all the machinations of modern society- “There was a shopping mall, Now it’s all covered with flowers”.  It’s easy to be reminded of this phrase when viewing Patrick Blanc’s vertical garden installations, in which the artist turns the sides of ordinary builds and bridges into a lush wall of living plants.

It seems (from the looks of the artwork) that Poster Boy and Aakash Nihalani had worked their magic overnight, and transformed several of the MoMA’s art reproductions into new pieces. Classic works of art were remixed with samples from advertising and cut-outs of other pieces. Aakash Nihalani also spruced up the MoMA’s advertisements and added some nice colored tape boxes in strategic spots around the station. Unfortunately, as of last night mostRead more...]]> http://www.psfk.com/2009/02/moma-atlantic-pacific-art-replaces-ads-in-brooklyn-subway-station.html Tue, 10 Feb 2009 20:55:17 +0000 The Museum of Modern Art has put up a temporary museum annex inside the large Atlantic Pacific subway station in Brooklyn, New York. Throughout the complex, reproductions of the MoMA’s collection have been placed along platforms and passageways for anyone to view 24/7. PSFK went to check out this pop up gallery, and found it to be a welcome addition to the station, adding a sense of place to what would normally be a space to be rushed though on the way to somewhere else. Subway riders entering the station displayed looks of confusion which morphed into expressions of delightRead more...]]>
