Walk-By Movies
Curated by Linda Norden
March 2 – April 26, Nightly 5:00 PM – 10 PM
The James Gallery's "Walk-By Movies," visible and audible only from the street, presents an urban, pedestrian version of the drive-in theater. On the heavily trafficked corner of Fifth Avenue and 35th Street, a curated series of films and video programs will be projected onto the gallery wall starting at 5:00 p.m. nightly. Building on the audience of street viewers attracted to the exhibition “People ‘Weekly’,” the new series further explores the windowed, street-level location of the gallery. Conceptually, "Walk-By Movies" addresses a longstanding dilemma faced by artists and curators: museum-goers cannot be expected to sit through a film or video in its entirety. By showing works that lend themselves to delimited viewing, while embracing the distinctly urban habits of window shopping and strolling, “Walk-By Movies” provides both a novel method of exhibiting contemporary film and video and a unique public art experience.
