Eric Fischl - Art "circus" Project

Art "circus" Project

Fischl's latest project is a traveling gallery of sorts-essentially, a well-organized traveling art circus. As he envisions it, 18 trucks custom-designed to serve as mobile galleries will travel to each location, where they will unfold to reveal 3,300 square feet (310 m2) of exhibition space. Together, the whole caravan will contain over 60 works of visual art, 16 music listening stations, and at least two theater spaces where actors can perform scenes and monologues live.

Famous quotes containing the words art, circus and/or project:

    There is no art without Eros.
    Max Frisch (1911–1991)

    One key, one solution to the mysteries of the human condition, one solution to the old knots of fate, freedom, and foreknowledge, exists, the propounding, namely, of the double consciousness. A man must ride alternately on the horses of his private and public nature, as the equestrians in the circus throw themselves nimbly from horse to horse, or plant one foot on the back of one, and the other foot on the back of the other.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Oh Death he is a little man,
    And he goes from do’ to do’ ...
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
