Vito Acconci Addition to MetroTech Gardens
MetroTech Center
July 1 - August 31, 1996
About the Exhibition
At MetroTech Center, a Brooklyn office complex and academic campus, Vito Acconci (b. 1940, New York City, NY) has created a public garden on a temporarily vacant lot between two existing chain-link fenced private gardens. From the adjacent side fences, “chain-link is stretched across the site”; ivy grows up from the existing gardens to cover it, to create “a horizontal plane of landscape, lifted up from the ground.”
