The Killing Fields of East New York: Book Talk with Stacy Horn

The Harvest Dome, a floating installation of 500 broken umbrellas and empty soda bottles, by SLO Architecture, moved from Inwood to Governors Island this morning in preparation for the art fair.

According to Curbed, it’s got a selling price at the art fair for $20,000! Here’s the play by play of today’s movements in photos, accompanied by smashingly great weather.
