PLAZA

Created by Andrew Schneider

October 14–25
Josie Robertson Plaza

In the rush of the city, it's easy to miss what—and who—is right in front of us. Step into PLAZA, an interactive experience that turns people-watching into the art itself.

Over two weeks, once a day, former Lincoln Center Collider Fellow Andrew Schneider transforms Josie Robertson Plaza into a living artwork built from what's already there: the crowd, the noise, the strangers beside you, and the coincidences that happen when people share a moment. You won't just be present; you'll be part of what everyone else is watching, too.

Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or a beginner who just loves to groove, movement through dance is healthy for your heart and mind. Not only does it release endorphins that boost your mood and reduce stress, dance as a form of regular exercise can help lower your blood pressure in just a few weeks, says Dr. Corey Bradley, a cardiologist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia. So come do something good for your cardiovascular and mental health by exploring the rhythms of house dance.
