Curated by Allison Glenn, the exhibition will feature 30 artists and collectives, including Kent Monkman, Rebecca Belmore, and Dawoud Bey, with a heavy emphasis on new commissions.

rosa barba moma times square moynihan

Rosa Barba's exhibition "The Ocean of One's Pause" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York surveys 15 years of her work, featuring over a dozen cinematic sculptures arranged as a single installation. Central to the show is her latest 25-minute film *Charge* (2025), co-commissioned by MoMA and the Vega Foundation, shot at CERN in Geneva. The film will also screen at Moynihan Train Hall and in Times Square as part of the "Midnight Moment" program throughout July. Barba transforms a black box gallery into a cello-like space, with long wires and film projectors creating a celluloid symphony through mechanical clicks and analog apparatuses.

Concurrently, Price’s *Man Series* (2005–present) will be shown on the square’s 95 giant screens every night in May as part of Times Square Arts’ *Midnight Moments* series. The sculpture was previously featured in Price’s 2023 solo exhibition at Hauser & Wirth’s Downtown Los Angeles location, and his New York gallery show *Resilience of Scale* runs until 14 June.
