Ben Rubin: Gallery Talk

Media artist Ben Rubin’s piece Terminal 8 at the South Street Seaport Museum juxtaposes the current port of New York–JFK Airport–in the historic rooms of the old port: the Seaport. Filming the comings and goings at JFK Airport in January 2011, Terminal 8 gives a window into our present day concept of what it means to be “at port.” Rubin’s other public works include Moveable Type (2007) and Listening Post (2002) and he is currently working on a new site-specific piece for the Public Theater called Shakespeare Machine. Join him as he discusses his inspirations, tools and challenges in presenting abstract concepts in film, sound, and installation format.
