Greater New York 2005 to Open at P.S. 1

Greater New York 2005, a survey of the best emerging artists working in New York City (and across the Hudson in Jersey) will open this Sunday, March 13, at P.S. 1. Curators from P.S. 1 and MoMA have filled all of P.S. 1's exhibit space with the work of about 150 artists--from the more than 2,000 who applied--to represent the latest and greatest in NYC art.

Greater New York 2005 is the biggest deal at P.S. 1 in a while. It's the second incarnation of Greater New York, and only includes artists who have gotten it together since the first was held in 2000. Preparation for this mammoth show have forced P.S. 1 to shut its doors since February 22, and the opening will coincide with a new P.S. 1 website.
