PROJECT OVERVIEW
Commissioned by MTA Arts & Design, 'New York Minute' is a large-scale 52-channel video temporary installation which premiered in November 2014 by new media artist Gabriel Barcia-Colombo for the recently opened Fulton Center, marking the inauguration of Arts & Design's Digital Arts Program. 'New York Minute' refers to the frenzied and hectic pace of New Yorkers' lives, featuring portraits of everyday New Yorkers doing everyday activities in super-slow motion. The installation seeks to shows what happens amid the frenetic pace of life in New York. In this work, Gabriel Barcia-Colombo highlights the comical and sometimes poignant street interactions that help make New York unique.
