Beyond the Spectacle: Making Participatory Art Artistically Credible
Hosted by Balloon Museum
Balloon Museum
Can an exhibition be highly engaging, visually arresting, and broadly accessible while still maintaining serious artistic and curatorial rigor?
Explore the answer to this question at the Balloon Museum, New York’s new experiential art exhibition featuring works by artists including Marina Abramović, Turner Prize winner Martin Creed, and other acclaimed international names. A Balloon Museum executive will guide attendees through new immersive exhibits while explaining how the museum works with established artists to translate complex ideas into monumental, participatory environments—without reducing the work to a photo opportunity.
