Electric Windows 2010
Over the course of one week in late July, the historic river city of Beacon in New York’s Hudson Valley will transform into a Mecca of Urban Art when local gallery Open Space unveils the new ELECTRIC WINDOWS 2010. In a one-day live art and music event, 28 of some of the country’s most prolific street artists will converge on Main Street to create original, large-scale works that will be permanently installed on the exteriors of vacant 19th-century buildings. The public installation and launch of the exhibition will be held on Saturday, July 31, at 510 Main Street, beginning at 12pm. ELECTRIC WINDOWS will then be a permanent public art destination, to remain on view year-round.
