Homebase IV Project on the Lower East Side

The Forward newspaper reported on an unusual art exhibition which asked the question, if you were to send us a photographical part of your body, what would that be?

It is called HomeBase and it is located in a dilapidated old medical clinic on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. HomeBase IV is a free exhibition and part of the 14th Street Y LABA Festival, in which a dozen former exam rooms in the medical clinic are the stage for artistic contemplations of personal and geopolitical identity. HomeBase project was founded in 2006 by artist and curator Anat Litwin.

I see this exhibit as bringing art from the street into the gallery space .. or in the medical examination room as it were.
