Lost Man’s Creek, made to scale from a 790 acre area of Redwood National Park. The open area here represents a creek that exists in the real forest.
Until this weekend, Spencer Finch was most well-known in New York City for having the longest running art installation on the High Line – The River That Flows Both Ways. Located in a passageway above Chelsea Market, the work was so appropriate to the site with its colored panes of glass, many assumed it was a permanent piece. In contrast, his latest work for Public Art Fund, “Lost Man’s Creek” in Downtown Brooklyn at Metrotech Commons is quite the opposite – a miniature redwood forest at 1:100 scale.
