Onassis Festival NY | Narcissus & Art: In the Woods

Narcissus Now will feature this highly original lecture on the myth of Narcissus in the art world today by The Bruce High Quality Foundation. Created in 2004, The Bruce High Quality Foundation is an arts collective based in Brooklyn, which—in its own words—is “…an experiment in the sense that we are trying out ways to learn from each other, we’re evaluating the results as we go, and we’re refining our approach. We don’t expect to develop the perfect method. But we do intend to continually perfect our method.” The collective includes five to eight rotating and anonymous members. The New York Times’ T Magazine called their work a “curious mash-up of sober scholarship and juvenile pranksterism that is not only novel, it’s also intriguingly hard to nail down.” Humorous and erudite, their work has been presented at the Whitney Biennale, MoMA, PS1, the New Museum and the Brooklyn Museum, as well as in Europe.
