Imagine the Future of the Plinth | The High Line

Share your thoughts on 80 artists' proposals for the third and fourth High Line Plinth commissions.

https://bit.ly/2FaMTKK

Two of these proposals will be selected by @highlineartnyc to follow Simone Leigh’s “Brick House” and a second to-be-announced commission, in 2022 and 2024. We want to hear your thoughts on these proposals to better inform the curatorial team’s decision.

We’ll be sharing 10 proposals in this thread each week for 8 weeks, and you can also leave comments on our website. How do you think these proposals would represent the High Line, New York City, and this moment in time?
