Ends 12/31 - Jeppe Hein: Please Touch the Art




6am
Brooklyn Bridge Park
East River (bet Adams St & Atlantic Ave)
Brooklyn, NY 11201
718-222-9939

Danish artist Jeppe Hein added 18 brand-new sculptures to Brooklyn Bridge Park’s massive playground and waterfront gardens that may change your definition of art.  Hein’s three bodies of work aren’t just set in a public space; it welcomes visitors to engage with it in the most playful way.  Walk among seven-foot-tall water-jet walls in Appearing Rooms (set on a platform right at the entrance to Pier 1), set on a timer so you don’t get wet; toy with Mirror Ladyrinth (located on the high ground of Pier 3 midway through the park); and relax on Modified Social Benches (located on Empire Fulton Ferry - Pier 6).
