PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Musical instruments, playbills, paint brushes, and other well-loved objects populate Kenney’s ode to the creativity that make Manhattan Plaza such a unique and invigorating community. These objects honor the time, energy, and commitment that are the backbone to the arts, while the vessel itself – versatile, robust, and protective – speaks to their depth of character and dynamism. This memorial pays tribute to the invaluable gifts made by the musicians, costume and set designers, writers, and everyone else who helps bring New York’s art scene to life.
