BROOKLYN, NY
HOURS: 24/7


The ART LOT is pleased to present WORLDWIDETOUR, an outdoor sculpture installation made in collaboration by John Bjerklie and Matt Blackwell. The installation, made in over a week, is a combination of pre-existing work, found materials and objects (including a few lumber yard items) created to form small compound where the artists will continue to work in throughout the show.

Bjerklie and Blackwell intend on exploring a series of activities and events in the space, transforming a typically static model of exhibiting into a continuous, ever-changing artifact of process. Upcoming events will be listed on the project website.

Sponsored in part by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by The Brooklyn Arts Council. Special thanks to Jim and Bobbi Vaughan for their contribution and support of the ART LOT.
