Make a Bronx collage
Linda Frye Burnham / 03:13 PM

You can have a lot of fun making moving collages out of Fatimah Tuggar's photos of the Bronx on the Bronx Museum Web site. Commissioned by the Public Art Fund, Tuggar photographed everyday sights from the streets of the Bronx, and is giving the public the opportunity to create collages with these images, using an interactive installation in the museum's lobby and on the Web. Tuggar will then select collages created by the public to be displayed on a series of Bronx bus shelters. Public Art Fund calls it "artwork that comes full circle — images are taken from the streets and reconfigured at the Bronx Museum, after which Public Art Fund extends them back into the streets where they become a new part of the Bronx landscape." The project, part of an exhibition called "Street Art, Street Life: From the 1950s to Now," runs through January 25, 2009.
