Tuesday, June 29, 1-4pm
Performance at Bryant Park (6th Avenue between 40/42 Streets)
Passerby: Michelle Handelman
Examining the possibility for or lack of privacy in public spaces and the
increasing prevalence of surveillance systems, Passerby features live
performers who remain immobile and mute yet are dressed as particular
visitors to the park who Handelman clandestinely documented during
previous visits there. Audio recordings from the conversations that
originally took place in each location will emanate from hidden speakers
on the performers. These audio recordings may be digitally manipulated
from the original conversations to create the effect of a doppelganger, a
mischievous shadow presence of the original.
*this is an on-going performance and visitors should feel free to come any
time between 1pm and 4pm
Rain date: Thursday, July 1, 1-4pm
