Far Off and All Aflame

The Bridge Progressive Arts Initiative hosted artist and writer Anthony Restivo in his first performance based work “Far Off and All Aflame: Pushing Against the Real.”

In the artists own words: “I am going to live in this gallery for three weeks. Using simple materials, I will create a sparsely decorated space intended to bring an observer out of the mundane. Central to the piece is an exploration into our relationship to violence. Once in the space, the observer will be asked a question. I will make a record of their answer on the wall of the gallery. This piece will be the work of many.”
