Description:
Playing Apart dismantles an entire 90-piece marching band into single performers that collectively use the whole city as a playing field. Each band member, dressed in street clothes, was continually playing their instrumental component of Twisted Sister's "We're Not Going To Take It" as they walk their own route through the city. By simply walking the streets, sitting in a cafe or peering out your office window - you are likely to see one band member after another passing by from random directions, like solitary pieces of a larger puzzle. This is an inaugural public art-sponsored performance art piece. It was documented through video and camera to create a visual documentary that serve as a permanent component to the commission.
