A Man Full of Trouble

Harvest Moon at the New Museum

Da Corte is creating the inaugural installation for the storefront window of the New Museum’s 231 Bowery building. The series pays homage to New Museum window installations of the 1980s.

Some of those became legendary including works by Jeff Koons, David Hammons, Linda Montao, and Bruce Nauman.

Harvest Moon is on view at 231 Bowery in the Lower East Side from September 27, 2017 – January 7, 2018.
