P.F. 1
Aug 27, 2008 in Me Me Me
So a bit more from my New York trip. One of my favourite things was my visit to P.S. 1, a public school out in Queens that was converted into a public art museum. Jonny Dovercourt and I went to see the building because I kept raving about it. There was some great Finnish art, including a haunting installation inspired by the doomed Russian submarine Kursk.
But the neatest thing is the agriculture installation out in the courtyard called P.F. 1 (Public Farm 1). From the press release:
P.F.1 (Public Farm One) is an urban farm concept that evokes the look of a flying carpet landing in the P.S.1 courtyard. Constructed from large cardboard tubes, its top surface will be a working farm, blooming with a variety of vegetables and plants.
