Thursday, October 24 | 5:30 PM – 7 PM | Oval Lawn

Artist Nicole Eisenman (b. 1965, France) realizes Fixed Crane, centering a decommissioned, toppled 1969 Link-Belt crane lain across the park’s Oval Lawn. Embellished with handmade sculptural figurative forms, the work destabilizes familiar heroic objects associated with human achievement and exploration.

A longtime NYC resident, Eisenman questions cycles of movement in urban space and how the human condition is central to ongoing urban construction. Eisenman is a contemporary painter, printmaker, and sculptor, with a wide body of work on the human condition that can be bleak or humorous. She is a MacArthur Foundation Fellow and was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 2018. Her work was included in the 2019 Venice Biennale and 2019 Whitney Biennial. 

Free and open to all, no registration is required for attendance.
