on the sidewalk along Seventh Street
Cast solid concrete, bronze
In conjunction with the exhibition Cuba Now, 21c Museum presents In Tran-sit,
2002-2010, an outdoor sculptural installation by the celebrated Cuban artist Yoan
Capote. Located on the sidewalk near the Seventh Street entrance of 21c Museum Hotel,
the sculpture functions like a bench in public space. It explores the experiences
of traveling and emigration. When visitors sit on the piece, they look like travelers
and emigrants; and when they leave the bench, the action symbolizes someone metaphorically
leaving luggage or memories behind. The weight of the piece also alludes to the
signifigance of these experiences in life.
