Community-Driven Exhibition Transforms Cars Into Unconventional Vehicles for Site-Specific Art

Over a crisp weekend in October, a Harlem parking lot hosted Stay Frosty, a community-driven exhibition organized by BravinLee Programs. The show transformed cars into unconventional vehicles for site-specific art, with works installed in trunks, truck beds, and on rearview mirrors. Highlights included Baloney's "Piggies Undo the World," featuring pigs attacking a red pickup; Ellie Murphy's tapestries draped over the fence; and Amy Rose Khoshbin's interactive "Altars to Agency." Artists, independent curators, galleries, and non-profits participated, turning the lot into an enclosed, vibrant environment for visual art.
