How Nick Cave Discovered His Purpose as an Artist

Celebrated for his majestic “Soundsuits,” artist Nick Cave reflects on his 2013 performance HEARD•NY as a transformative experience in his career.

Nick Cave’s HEARD•NY performance at Grand Central Terminal in 2013, a collaboration with MTA Arts & Design and Creative Time, “underscored the transformative potential of art to empower and enlighten communities.”

#tbt to our 2013 project, #HEARDNY by artist #NickCave! He transformed #grandcentralterminal's Vanderbilt Hall with a herd of 30 beautiful life-sized horses that broke into "crossings" (choreographed movement) 2x a day. It was truly magical! ✨💫

#tbt to Nick Cave’s HEARD•NY in 2013, when 30 life sized colorful horses grazed through Grand Central Terminal​ to the delight of thousands of visitors – presented in collaboration with Creative Time​. As a continuation of Cave’s performance series, the horses will ride again when Cranbrook Art Museum​ presents Heard•Detroit on Saturday, September 26 at Milliken State Park, Detroit MI. Wish we could be there, too!

Flash Back Friday! Just over a year ago, we invited visual artist Nick Cave to take up residence for a week in Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall where he presented  the incredible HEARD•NY. Thirty colorful Soundsuit horses were brought to life by sixty Ailey School dancers during this week long event seen by thousands of thrilled visitors. This week, we heard news that Jack Shainman Gallery will open a new space, The School, May 17, 2014 in Kinderhook, NY with a performance and exhibition by Nick Cave…We can’t wait to see it!

Happy Chinese New Year! According to the Chinese New Year Calendar, 2014 is the year of the Horse and it got us thinking about our favorite equine partners. Here are some amazing photos from Nick Cave’s HEARD•NY. In case you missed it, last spring we invited visual artist Nick Cave and his team to transform Grand Central’s Vanderbilt Hall with thirty colorful horses brought to life by sixty Ailey School dancers.

OUR PIC MADE THE NICK CAVE TOP 100!

This past March, CreativeTime collaborated with artist Nick Cave creating HEARDNY to celebrate Grand Central Station's Centennial. Cave transformed Grand Central Station's Vanderbilt Hall with thirty colorful horses that periodically broke into dance twice a day. 

CreativeTime invited everyone to share their experience by hashtaging their social media posts with #IHEARDNY. At the projects end, Nick Cave chose 100 of these to be used as part of a interactive digital collage. 

Needless to say we're thrilled to be one of the 100 chosen.

Here's to more great Creative Time programming!

You can check out the Nick Cave collage here.
