The “ballet project,” as FAILE called it, or the New York City Ballet Art Series, to use the official name. celebrated the collaboration between the NYCB with contemporary visual artists who create new works inspired by the ballet and was displayed at the David H. Koch Theater.
Faile were the first artists to start this series with their boldly irreverent representational art that juxtaposes images to create complex, thought-provoking tapestries of ideas, storylines and unexpected connections. Mixing ballet iconography with their own pop culture imagery, the artists fashioned a 40-foot tower for the Promenade constructed from hundreds of printed and hand-painted wood blocks and more than a dozen paintings for the Orchestra Level made from imageladen wood blocks framed in steel.
Faile American, b. 1975 & 1976
