In September of 2011, ArtBridge brought Aleksandar Macašev’s ChromaTweet into the public realm as a 400 foot public art exhibition commissioned as part of the Dumbo Arts Festival, running along Water Street on the scaffolding surrounding historic Empire Stores building. What’s with the stripes? Each one is a color tweet, Ma?ašev’s daily moods, feelings and experiences compressed into one piece of information: color.
Grab your friends and join Ma?ašev and ArtBridge for WALK: ChromaTweet, a guided tour of the two-year-long colorful emotional journey of this unorthodox and creative New York City-based artist on Saturday, July 21, 2012 at 12pm. Macašev will discuss how the experience of working large-scale and in public has transformed his experience of the project, as well as the ChromaTweet Social Network, scheduled to launch this month.
They will be gathering at the southwest corner, where Water Street meets Dock Street. Be sure to wear weather appropriate clothes and comfortable walking shoes.
ArtBridge is a non profit organization committed to the development and support of emerging artists through initiatives such as billboard-sized public art installations and public programming.
