Orien McNeill, Artist Who Made Mischief on the Water, Dies at 46

He was the pied piper of a loose community of DIY artists homesteading on New York City’s waterways, which he used as his canvas and stage.

Farewell to a friend.

I recently did an interview for The Adventure Handbook​ on my days traveling by junk raft. You can check it out here.

I am exhibiting a selection of images from the Swimming Cities as part of Islands of Utopia at Musuku in Berlin. The show will be at the House of Statistics at Alexanderplatz, an abandoned place steeped in history, right in the centre of Berlin. Look for the giant raft mural.

SWOON, godmother of the Swimming Cities, stewarded by our pal Jeffrey Deitch. SWOON is hard at work creating artists' hives in neglected metropoli like Pittsburgh, Detroit and New Orleans -- stay tuned for more from the artist, and Jeffrey, here.
