Miniature Model and Giant Buddha

This Hyperallergic newsletter covers multiple New York art stories: Joe Macken's 50-foot hand-built wood replica of New York City now on long-term view at the Museum of the City of New York, Tuan Andrew Nguyen's towering Buddha sculpture on the High Line referencing the destroyed Bamiyan Buddhas, and the MoMA PS1 survey "Greater New York." It also reports on CONDUCTOR, New York's first art fair committed to the global majority, a new experimental artist-run space called The Gallery in Brooklyn, and reviews of Mark Milroy at JJ Murphy and Kim Gordon at Amant.

Alex Da Corte has resurrected his inflatable sculpture "Kermit the Frog, Even" for Art Basel Paris, displayed at Place Vendôme through October 26. The work references the 1991 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade incident where the Kermit float was deflated by a lamppost or tree, leaving its head sagging. Da Corte first debuted the piece in Buenos Aires in 2018 for the Art Basel Cities exhibition curated by Cecilia Alemani. The artist, known for mining children's media like Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street, also activated the sculpture with performers for the first time in Paris, navigating wind and rain during the performance.
