You never know what you will find in Times Square on any given day. Costumed characters, naked cowboys, women with nothing but body paint on…you just never know. One thing you can always count on is for there to be something going on. Last week, we happened upon an art installation called Nearness. This is a collection of chain link fences with body cutouts of every shape and size outlined in a blazing orange color.
So interesting to see people posing in them and talking about it and to happen upon it in the busy streets of New York City. Interested in seeing them for yourself? They will be in Times Square through August 18th. Check out more info about the artist and art installation here.
These are so interesting. Times Square is such a neat place. It was severe years ago when I was there but I loved it.
This is fabulous! What a cool art installation. I may be in NYC soon.
Wow this looks really neat! Is this a traveling art piece?
How Creative Love It Thanks For Sharing!
I love this I would love to see these in person.
I am fascinated by the various art installations here locally. I like that cities are finding ways to incorporate art into the everyday.
I love NYC, there is always something to do and always some new thing to see. This is a cool piece!
Wow This would have been an interesting exhibit to walk by, very creative indeed.
I saw that when I was going to an event around Times Square. I was wondering what they were.
Wow! That looks very neat, thanks for sharing awesome photo!
That looks so cool!! NYC is the place to find things like that..
That is UBER cool! It’s like two human torches just walked right through the fencing. Great.
Nearness- so cool! The awesome ideas people come up with amaze me!
Gosh, people are so creative! I would never even think to do this. How cool. I definitely want to see these.
These kinds of things draw the crowd in. I’m sure photos of people who have seen these are everywhere in Facebook, IG, and other social networks. This is so cool!
ohhh so cool!!! ill be there in sept! sucks that it will be done by then but im sure there will be another fun NYC artistic thing!
xo,

This is crazy cool! I love the idea and it would be fun to go there!
That’s kind of interesting. I can see my daughter going crazy and taking selfies there with glee. 🙂
I love Times square. This looks a cool thing to go see. I wish I could go before the exhibit leaves.
I guess I just don’t see art. I see a trashy busted up fence with spray paint on it.
Sounds interesting. My husband would hate this, but I am in love with this abstract kind of art. I would be posing with them.
I’ve never heard of this before, I would love to go there and see the Nearness.
This is a strong piece of art. I love the message
I just think this is the neatest thing! I really love it!
I love this art installation!! I will be definitely having my photo taken if I was there.
Looks interesting. I loved visiting Times Square – and yes, the naked cowboy was one of the first things we saw!
That looks neat. I love abstract art pieces. I sometimes love times square….and sometimes I hate it. 🙂
Wow now that is some interesting art! That is pretty cool, I love abstract work, we have a few pieces in the house.
