In celebration of the opening of Section 2 of the High Line Park, art and design collaborative FriendsWithYou presents Rainbow City, its first interactive art installation in New York City on view from June 8th through July 5th. The collection of 40 air-filled sculptures will take over 16,000 square feet of outdoor space in Chelsea throughout the month. FriendsWithYou was founded in 2002 by Samuel Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III, two Miami-based artists, with the mission to spread Magic, Luck, and Friendship™ around the world. Their works have been exhibited or included in permanent collections of the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), the Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA), and the Haus der Kulturen der Welt Museum in Berlin, Germany. In homage to their latest installation, get a preview of Rainbow City and take a look back at some of the most inspired works by FriendsWithYou over the years.
