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.

A large cast of performers loop through various pathways in the museum spaces, collapsing the distance between audience and performer. Brandt’s modular, score-based choreography is informed by the building’s planes, surfaces, and volumes, as well as the performers’ effects on their surroundings.&nbsp;Image: Clear Night (2019), presented by Issue Project Room at Pioneer Works, Brooklyn NY;.&nbsp;Photo Credit Bradley Buehring.&nbsp;
