Our days with Sam Durant's "Untitled (drone)" are numbered—it's your last chance to catch the second High Line Plinth commission on the Spur. After over a year on view, this work will be coming down later this month as we look forward to the next commission. ... "Untitled (drone)" is a large-scale fiberglass sculpture in the shape of an abstracted drone atop a 25-foot-tall steel pole. With this work, Durant seeks to make visible the intentionally obscured drone warfare perpetuated by the US, and to remind the public that drones and surveillance are a tragic and pervasive presence in the daily lives of many living outside—and within—the United States. To further explore the topic of drones in our everyday lives, @highlineartnyc hosted two symposiums in partnership with the @veralistcenter for Art and Politics at @thenewschool, writer and researcher Arthur Holland Michel, the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project, and the Engelberg Center on Innovation Law & Policy at @nyulaw. ...
