The Saarinen designed TWA terminal at New York's JFK airport will house an art exhibit that is curated to respond to the transitory nature of travel. While that description may sound a bit cryptic and recursive, the list of artists who will be showing in this iconic space promises to bring something special.
Terminal 5 is an event for air travel. The airport terminal designed by Eero Saarinen at John F. Kennedy Airport, New York, was left vacant in 2001. The site reopens with an exhibition curated by Rachel K. Ward to respond to the transitory nature of travel, architecture and contemporary art. Sculpture, installation, sound, performance and other media take place within the luggage carousels, ticket counters, VIP lounges, staircases and the tunnel walkway. The terminal also hosts an airport media lounge, airport gift shop and ongoing "Arrivals," a series of public events.
Terminal 5 will open 1 October 2004 and runs through 31 January 2005.
11am-7pm, Tuesday through Saturday.
Terminal 5 is curated by Rachel K. Ward and includes work from:
Vanessa Beecroft
Douglas Coupland
Kendell Geers
Dan Graham
Toland Grinnell
Fabrice Gygi
Mark Handforth
Jenny Holzer
Ryoji Ikeda

The Paris-born artist and filmmaker has done just about everything interesting in the past forty years. To prove it, he kept a diary of his days...
by Ariston Anderson At first glance, the collection of portraits FAS Contemporary's Volta booth appears to be a wall of extremely beautiful women throughout the ages, each one quickly created in delicate strokes of oil paint. But then Monica Lewinsky's face pops out at you and is that Paula Jones? British painter Annie Kevan's solo show features every Presidential girlfriend on record. Although the majority...
