Miranda July's 11 Heavy Things

It's so lonely around here without the cold, inviting stare of Marina Abramović, isn't it? Luckily, last week Miranda July's public art project was unveiled in Union Square, and it's pretty fun! It's titled 11 Heavy Things, and consists of 11 sculptures that encourage viewer interaction. The installation will be set up through October, and July told ArtInfo that kids will probably use them as "play equipment or something" (which is probably safer than the playground equipment currently at the park!). If you head over there to interact with the pieces, send us your photos or tag them with "Gothamist" in Flickr!
