This is a Rehearsal–the title of CAB 5–explores how contemporary environmental, political, and economic issues are shared across national boundaries but are addressed differently around the world through art, architecture, infrastructure, and civic participation. CAB 5 builds on and expands Floating Museum’s ongoing work, including site-responsive art and design projects and public programs, to explore divergent interpretations of infrastructure, history, and the role of aesthetics as a mode for expanding how we frame the relationship between our environments and ourselves.The 5th edition runs Nov 1, 2023–Feb 11, 2024Image: Image:100 Links: Architecture and Land, in and out of the Americas, 2023,&nbsp;The Buell Center and AD—WO, Columbia University.

Location: 900 Lake Shore DriveThis site-specific installation at the 900 N Lake Shore Drive apartments, designed by Mies van der Rohe continues Assaf Evron’s Collage Series. After Mies immigrated to the U.S. in 1938, he made collaged works of domestic interiors featuring American landscapes. Evron similarly treats the Esplanade Apartment building’s windows with a mountain range located in Israel--creating a dialogue about global citizenship. Presented with the Elmhurst Art Museum.&nbsp;Image: Assaf Evron, Collages for the Esplanade Apartments, 2019, reparatory collage.&nbsp;
