Summer is hot at SculptureCenter and we've got lots of art, events, and projects to keep you coming back to Long Island City. Our summer exhibitions opened on June 1st to an enthusiastic crowd of old and new SculptureCenter friends. Currently on view, Liz Glynn's RANSOM ROOM will be changing daily as she attempts to cast Inca Emperor Atahualpa's ransom in golden wax. And if you are looking for a way to enjoy a day in LIC, check out the new LIC Art Bus that promotes and connects Long Island City's cultural institutions! If you aren't in the city, but want to check out some of our recent SculptureCenter Conversations, we've just uploaded Neomaterialism with Joshua Simon and Sexing Sculpture to our YouTube channel!
