In October 2009, Brooklyn Arts Council, in partnership with JMH Development, put out an open call for proposals for art installations by Brooklyn artists to be installed at the newly converted luxury rental building 184 Kent Ave. in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. From the 200 entries the JMH team selected two artists to each install original artworks for 6-month periods. Lisa Kellner’s 3-dimensional silk sculpture “At Summer’s Full” was installed in April 2010. It can be seen not only by residents in the building but also by passersby on the outdoor public walkway to the waterfront. A.J. Bocchino’s “New York Times Headlines (January 1, 1969-March 18, 1975)” was installation was organized and executed by Jason Patrick Voegele of Republic Worldwide in the fall of 2010.
