Back in July I told you about the permanent installation of “Swimming Pool” by Leandro Erlich in Kanazawa, Japan.
Japan may not be in your immediate travel plans but New York is an easy trip for anyone in the States. There is always a good reason to hit the city. Get there by mid September and head to Long Island City and check out the installation at the P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center.
Ten years ago while Erlich was working on his first pool he visited P.S.1. At the time he thought the duplex at the museum would be the perfect spot for “Swimming Pool”. Now you can experience the piece as the artist first envisioned it.
