Video, 2:32 minutes

In this silent video, still images of stores and residential buildings in New York City appear within a cutout template, based on the “giftbox heap” formed by the New Museum silhouette. As these shiny storefronts, dwellings, and official documents of occupancy of the new Bowery in the twenty-first century go by, set phrases relating to the merits and demerits of museums roll desultorily down from above to below.
