In a year of projection art illuminating the facades of NYC, Lumen 2011, International Video and Performance Art Festival returns to the Staten Island waterfront on Saturday, June 25, 2011 from 6pm to 12 midnight!
With free ferries that run all night and Brooklyn Brewery providing the local brew, Lumen offers art enthusiasts a free summer evening of new media installations. Presented by The Council on the Arts & Humanities for Staten Island, the contemporary art event will take place on the grounds of the National Lighthouse Museum, less than 5 minutes from the SI Ferry Terminal.
An industrial Staten Island waterfront stage will feature work from over 50 international and NYC-based artists who have shown and performed at such NYC venues as Galapagos Art Space, P.S.1, The Whitney Museum, Issue Project Room, The Invisible Dog Art Center, Flux Factory, The Bronx Museum, BAM Rose Cinemas, ApexArt, Art in General, Artists Space, Smack Mellon, Lower East Side Tenement Museum, NurtureArt, and BronxArtSpace, among others. The festival will include performances throughout the day curated by Grace Exhibition Space.
