MoMA PS1 Warm Up kicked off their 2017 season with rain & a rainbow (pics, video)

MoMA PS1 kicked off the 20th year of their annual summer Warm Up series this Fourth of July weekend (7/1). Jackmaster, DJ EZ, Tiger & Woods, Shanti Celeste, and VHVL were all on Saturday’s lineup, which brought out hundreds to dance (right through a downpour) in MoMA PS1’s courtyard. The double rainbow that was visible throughout NYC after Saturday’s storm could be seen in Queens too, above this summer’s art installation, Lumen, by Jenny Sabin Studio. About the installation, MoMA says:

Lumen, an immersive, interactive installation by Jenny Sabin Studio, will be on view in MoMA PS1’s courtyard during summer 2017. Winner of The Museum of Modern Art and MoMA PS1’s annual Young Architects Program, this year’s structure evolves over the course of the day, with responsive textiles that display subtle color in sunlight and emit glowing light after sundown. Made of over 1 million yards of digitally knitted fiber, Lumen’s large-scale cellular canopies feature 250 hanging tubular structures, 100 robotically woven recycled spool stools, and a misting system that responds to visitors’ proximity.

You can see it in action in the gallery from Saturday’s Warm Up above and the videos below.

Warm Ups continue every Saturday until September 2. See the full lineup and ticket information HERE.
