PS1 Party Wall and Warm Up
This Saturday dance party Warm Up has been taking place at MOMA’s PS 1 space in Queens for sixteen years now. Which, sixteen years!!! That’s a lifetime. Despite being so ancient, it’s still a great place to go and just physically let out everything that has been building up in you all week long. And, if you’re like me, nothing lets out the stress like dancing your fucking ass off. Plus, there’s the added bonus of getting to enjoy brand-new installation “Party Wall” by Ithaca-based artist Caroline O’Donnell. “Party Wall” is “a pavilion and flexible experimental space that uses its large-scale, linear form to provide shade for the Warm Up crowds, in addition to other functions…[its] steel-angle structure is ballasted by water-filled “pillows” made of polyester base fabric that will be lit at night to produce a luminous effect. Party Wall acts as an aqueduct by carrying a stream of water along the top of the structure. The water is projected from the structure, via a pressure-tank, into a fountain that feeds a misting station and a series of pools.” Sounds good to me, and definitely worth a weekend visit.
