If you haven’t been down to Brooklyn Bridge Park in the last two weeks, you should go and experience Danish artist Jeppe Hein’s “Please Touch the Art”; an exhibit that will remain in place at locations throughout the Park until next April. There are many variations of his “modified social benches,” which invite sitting in different ways than to which we are accustomed, or in some instances, as in the photo, climbing.
His “Mirror Labyrinth NYC” has a “now you see it, now you don’t” quality when approached from the lawn.
Inside, it invites the taking of simultaneous multiple selfies.
Hein’s “Appearing Rooms,” a platform from which jets of water form the “walls” of rectangular rooms that change location in apparently random fashion, is especially popular on hot days.
