Last winter, Third Rail Projects transformed the Art Space with the installation <i>A Series of Reveals</i>, and then moved to the plaza over the summer for the site-specific dance piece <i>Looking Glass</i>. This fall, Third Rail Projects returns to the Art Space on concourse level to create small scale installations with an interwoven narrative for visitors to explore – or become a permanent part of them. <br /> <br /><i>Installations and Ephemera</i> is the final stage of the residency, in which Third Rail Projects invites visitors to explore several small scale installations to discover a contemporary re-imagining of the “Alice” stories. event_194 http://www.artsbrookfield.com/new_york/zuccotti_park/event_205.htm <img src="http://www.artsbrookfield.com/resources/3501/Zuccotti Park_460x187_event.jpg" /> <br /> <br /><b>PUBLIC ART</b> <br />Mark di Suvero <br /><i>Joie de Vivre</i> <br /> <br />Mark di Suvero's "Joie de Vivre" anchors the southeast corner of Zuccotti Park, located near One Liberty Plaza at Broadway and Liberty Street. The 70-foot-tall sculpture was donated to New York City by Agnes Gund, president of the Museum of Modern Art, and her husband Daniel Shapiro. Originally set in Tribeca at the Holland Tunnel rotary, it has been exhibited in Paris at the Esplanade des Invalides, near Pont Alexandre II bridge and at Storm King Center, New York. <br /> <br />In 2006 Brookfield Properties undertook an $8 million renovation of the lower Manhattan public plaza, formerly called Liberty Plaza Park, and “Joie de Vivre” assumed it’s new prominent location. Di Suvero and his wife Kate Levin, attended the opening ceremony for Zuccotti Park, renamed in honor of John Zuccotti, US Chairman of Brookfield Properties. event_205
