IDEAS CITY 2015

Read a conversation between Diana Balmori and our Director Brett Littman here.

For IDEAS CITY 2015, The Drawing Center presents Balmori Associates’Meditation Room: Horizon a constructed continuous wall of paper where the overlapping of two dot matrix systems comes together to create a visible horizon. A city is distinguished by the presence of multiple horizon lines stacked one over another.Meditation Room: Horizon explores basic traits of landscape, in this case, the effect of an expansive open horizon – water and sky – inside a busy urban one.

You are invited to med­itate on this concept of the horizon and to draw your interpretation. Diana Balmori will consider drawings made during the street festival for inclusion in a book and exhibition that is in the works.

You can find us in Sara D. Roosevelt Park near the corner of Chrystie and Houston.

Produced by Education Director, Aimee Good.
