BLOCK PARTY

December 2017 – June 2018

BLOCK PARTY brought together the elements of the iconic Brooklyn block party all under one roof, including a series of dimensional stoops set against a backdrop of artistic facades of residential buildings, and different ”street” and green spaces to play games, meet friends, relax, and have fun. Large-scale photographs by Brooklyn-based artist Anderson Zaca, who has long documented block parties in Brooklyn, were featured to invoke the joy, action, and diversity of block parties celebrated annually across neighborhoods in New York City. Families were invited to add to the photographs, and record their own images and experiences in the city among those of their neighbors.
