Megan Feldman Anna and Michael at P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center 2010
Look what Flavorpill did:
Even if you haven’t wandered up to 86th Street recently, chances are you’ve heard whispers of something unusual afoot. That something is courtesy of performance artist Tino Sehgal, whose ephemeral pieces rely on empty space and spectator involvement. One such piece in his current solo show at the Guggenheim, titled “The Kiss,” involves a couple embracing on the floor of the rotunda in a “changing, slow-motion, amorous” entanglement. We at Flavorpill love staging elaborate photo shoots in museums and decided to reinterpret Sehgal’s performance piece in five New York City art institutions: The Metropolitan Museum, New Museum, Rubin Museum, P.S.1, and the Brooklyn Museum.
I kind of did some kissing at a museum this weekend, but nothing was documented. I guess I will have to settle being not as cute.
And yes, it is that Anna and Michael.
