Paulina dances The Neighbor's Shuffle

Artist Paulina Antoniewicz came to the US as part of Pawel Althamer's creative team in presenting The Neighbors at the New Museum. As part of the collaborative nature of the exhibition, Pawel wanted street musician's  to perform in the lobby throughout the exhibition and I've happily performed and filmed people for my Inspiration Project. Paulina is an amazing artist in her own right.

What inspires Paulina?  "Meeting people, others, beauty of nature and creation."

Read more about my experience creating my Inspiration Project for the New Museum.

Here's a clip of the same moment taken by another member of Pawel's team. It's fun to see both perspectives.

gHSTS n gUITARS inspired James

Street musicians have been invited to perform at the New Museum as part of artist Pawel Althamer's exhibition The Neighbors (ongoing until April 20th). The sound is mic'ed and then amplified into the 3rd floor exhibition room. I met guitarist James Joseph of gHSTS n gUITARS performing after me, as he was setting up in the lobby. 

What inspires street musician James of gHSTS n gUITARS?

"Life, Living,
Solving problems that governmental organizations set up to slow me and other people down,

Little kids, energy from children help me tap into energy I'd forgotten about- incredibly powerful,

blessings,
women, nice bottle of wine,
420 friendly."

You can say that James is one inspired guy!

NYCSubwayGirl chats with Communications Director of the New Museum about Pawel Althamer's exhibition The Neighbors, and what inspires her.  The New Museum's is also supporting their true neighbors the Bowery Mission, there will be a coat drive to benefit the mission.  Bring a coat during the exhibition and get free admission.

I am performing at the New Museum during the exhibition. Pawel wanted to have street musicians performing during the exhibit to express the idea of collaboration and connection. I will be performing from time to time until April 12th (here's a link to my schedule).  Many other street musicians have been selected to also perform.
