The Slowly Project: Take your time – New York, 2005 – 2011, Usa, colours, 19’36”  ed 3 + 2ap

 

This work comes from a series of LIUBA’s performance art pieces in the streets of Manhattan between 2005 and 2011.

 

The performance consists in moving in ‘slow motion’ in daily life, walking so slowly to cause surprise, disbelief, shock and reflection among the citizens who meet the performance.

The itinerary of each performance was carefully chosen by the artist, with the intention of going into the most nevralgic, symbolic and chaotic areas of the city, such as Wall Street, Staten Island Ferry in the early morning, World Trade Center, Grand Central Station, Times Square, Union Square, Metropolitan Museum, West4th.
