Gema Alava / Find My Future

This interactive performance invites the public to a palm reading. In exchange, participants receive a printed map of hidden art pieces by major artists. While the future of many artists seems to be predicated upon a structured system, science highlights the importance of chaos and chance.


Date:

Saturdays, October 6 and 13 from 4-7pm, and Sunday, October 7 from 12-7pm

Location:

The performance will take place near a bench in Union Square Park.
