Pro-Palestinian demonstrators rallied inside Penn Station's Moynihan Train Hall in midtown Manhattan during the Monday evening commute. The group had earlier marched from the Port Authority Bus Terminal and Grand Central Terminal, where police limited access to several entrances. The demonstration caused travel delays and restrictions in the area.
Joshua Frankel's video art installation, "Within the crowd there is a quality," at Moynihan Train Hall in New York City is struggling to capture attention amidst a sea of advertisements. The 42-second animation is part of the Moynihan Train Hall Public Art Program and is displayed on large LED screens alongside various ads. However, the subtle and unassuming nature of Frankel's piece makes it blend in with the surrounding commercial content, resulting in it being largely ignored by viewers. The challenge for video art in public spaces is to stand out and transcend the expectations of normal screen experiences, which Frankel's work fails to do in this context.
