What are the forces that shape our urban surroundings? Newark Metametrics examines the intimacies of the city: the neighborhoods and objects that recall the individuals who make a place and are shaped by it. The installation at the Newark Museum includes their collages and constructions, a video installation and a full scale ceramic monument to Newark's Roseville neighborhood. Come see the Hidden City.
Newark Metametrics is a collaborative studio of artists and architects exploring the role of architecture and planning in defining the nature of the modern city. Contributors to Synthesizing the City include Tom Bish, Hal Laessig, Silvano Sole, Yoland Skeete and student interns Dueane Wizzard, Cindy Kwok and Myra Riddick.
