Avenue of the Americas
Updated: Monday, May 17th, 2010
LMCC LentSpace presents a new exhibit:
May 19 – November 19, 2010
Avenue of the Americas is a site-specific sculpture exhibition, which literally sits at the gateway of Sixth Avenue, and features artists from North and South America tackling themes related to the social and political issues confronting American societies.
The exhibition features a series of new artist commissions by Julieta Aranda, Carlos Motta and David Sanin Paz, Judi Werthein, and Carla Zaccagnini. The aim of this exhibition is to create a public showcase, which fosters an increased
understanding of and appreciation for the diverse cultural heritage of the Americas through a public art exhibition that speaks to the importance of inter-American relationships. Sixth Avenue was renamed Avenue of the Americas in 1945 by Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia (1882-1947) as a place to honor “Pan-American ideals and principles” by the creation of public monuments and plazas. Exploring an interest in communication, the four art works in Avenue of the Americas create work that utilize language, text, and iconic emblems, which create reference points for these narratives, and will stimulate visitors to explore many points of interest and engage in a continued discussion.
Additionally, 2010 marks several important anniversaries in the struggle for Argentine, Chilean, Colombian, and Mexican independence.
