Tom Fruin’s Stained Glass House Installed at Brooklyn Bridge Park
As part of this year’s DUMBO Arts Festival, sculptor Tom Fruin installed his famous plexiglass house, “Kolonihavehus,” in Brooklyn Bridge Park. The multi-colored house was lit from inside and temporarily inhabited by performance duo CoreAct who engaged in a collaborative physical performance that is described here by DUMBO:
The colorful glass house is inhabited by two performers, who portray everyday dilemmas and lifestyle paradoxes in a subtle manner. They have lost the ability to meaningfully discriminate, and are trapped in a long chain of procrastination, mirroring our current social patterns.
You might also recognize Fruin’s other renowned sculpture in DUMBO, “Watertower.”
