the project
This project activates green space by using the fence around a park for public outdoor portraiture exhibition. This exhibition features portraits created by and depicting local Brooklyn residents. After over a year of struggles during COVID, this exhibition is meant to celebrate the resilience, strength, and diversity of our amazing Brooklyn community. This project is in collaboration with The Old Stone House and is part of the Arts Gowanus Gallery Dispersed initiative.
This exhibition will feature over 100 images of artwork from local Brooklyn artists printed on banners which will be exhibited on the fence surrounding J.J. Byrne Playground from May 15 - June 25. The banners displaying the artwork will be 36 x 36 inches and will include a short description of the subject in the portrait.
