From September 9 through September 15, visual artist Amir Baradaran will debut TRANSIENT, a series of 40-second video installations infiltrating NYC taxicabs for one week.
Baradaran seeks to capture, challenge and transform the everyday modalities of NYC cab rides by interrupting Taxi TV’s regular programming flow in 6,300 taxicabs, to be viewed by approximately 1.5 million passengers.
About Amir Baradaran
New York-based visual artist Amir Baradaran (b. 1977) was born in Tehran and raised in Montreal. Baradaran's artistic practice is marked by a recurring exploration of the cross-section of race and gender. Baradaran's previous work, The Other Artist Is Present (2010), a guerrilla performance in four acts at the Museum of Modern Art, honored, questioned and ultimately departed from its inspiration, Marina Abramovic's The Artist Is Present (2010).
