Jim Dwyer described best last October: Harvest Dome, a 24-foot-diameter orb fashioned from 500 recovered stormsnapped umbrellas and floating atop a 20-foot-diameter ring of 128 2-liter bottles, is set to ride out on the inlet at Inwood Hill Park at the northern tip of Manhattan, as soon as we can secure the umbrellas and the staging area this summer!

Do you envision your art at a specific location? If so, add the address below, and we'll map your ideas!:

On the Brian Lehrer Show we're talking about public art, and we want to know what public art project you'd propose. Make it simple, make it over-the-top. Make it realistic, or completely impossible! Note: These aren't actual pitches, just a way to share our ideas.
