PS1 COURTYARD: an experiment in creative ecologies reimagines the uses of and access to PS1’s outdoor Courtyard, which is the interstitial space between the institution, its neighborhood, and the community. Featuring a series of new initiatives, including a participatory installation by artist Rashid Johnson, a series of Thought Collectives to test out creative and forward-thinking propositions for the use of public space, and a commissioning program to reanimate the Courtyard’s concrete walls, the program recasts one of the few plots of open land in Long Island City—the fastest growing residential neighborhood in the US and a site of rapid gentrification—as a place for experimentation and engagement with urban ecologies.
