Recently, Grand Central commuters were gifted a sight for sore, hurried eyes. A new permanent installation by artist Jim Hodges now greets passersby of the connection between Grand Central Terminal and the Grand Central-42 St subway station. The site-specific mirrored glass installation is titled I dreamed a world and called it Love. In other news, Cora Fisher, László Jakab Orsós, and Laura Raicovich share word of the new Art & Society Census, a partnership between the Brooklyn Public Library and Hyperallergic, which wants to hear from you about recent shifts in art and culture. |
