Kentile...let there be light

Barry Yanowitz

Did you ever imagine that Brooklyn's iconic Kentile sign would light up the Gowanus sky again?  I sure didn't.  But last night Tim BartlettGeorge Del Barrio, and Karl Mehrer made it happen:

Inactive since 1992, this 7-story canvas will be illuminated by a pair of Digital Projection DPI Titan Super Quad 20K projectors. A looping series of site-specific videos/animatics will be presented from sunset onwards. The program is estimated at 30 minutes in length, and will contain works by Ralph Ellison, Milan Kundera, Gabriel García Márquez & Henry David Thoreau.

Some more details are on Tim Bartlett's page.
