Bring to Light: Nuit Blanche New York

When the sun goes down, dozens of site-specific pieces will illuminate Greenpoint’s streets and waterfront for the second Bring to Light: Nuit Blanche New York. The event, pegged to similar happenings in Paris, Brussels and Toronto, gathers 50 artists from around the world to transform the cityscape into a glowing urban scene. Projects include a screening of Alex Villar’s video installation Splitting Image, which documents the journey of a commuter (and his alter ego) from Lower Manhattan to Brooklyn, and Camille Scherrer’s In the Woods, which morphs spectators’ shadows into fantastical creatures.
