EAST VILLAGE — Come get lucky on 14th Street this weekend!
About 30 artists will show works that play off the word "chance" at the Art in Odd Places Festival, a 10-day street art event that kicks off Friday night on and around 14th street. Artists like The Cunningham Repertory Understudy Group and Flux Factory will show works that play off the themes of proposition, luck, randomness risk and opportunity in drawings, performances and sculpture.
A few festival highlights include a scavenger hunt, a personality test and two women holding signs that read "Offering Luck. Free."
There will also be a giant text message projection encouraging community building, site-specific handmade clay impressions and sound performances from portable boom boxes.
"We regard 14th Street as a space where disparate communities converge," guest curators Yaelle Amir and Petrushka Bazin said about the festival.
"Organizing a show that takes place in such a fluid environment, creates an opportunity for unpredictable exchanges and spatial revelations for all involved."
