Washington Square Open Skies

Open Skies Parks & Projects

Artist: Mike Lai
Project: Bruce Lee vs. The League of Super Heroes

NOTE: SATURDAY 1-3 PM ONLY!

Bruce Lee vs The Superheroes combines dimensions of recreation, play, theater, performance, sport, costume and history. In an orchestrated game of Capture the Flag, multiple Bruce Lees (outfitted in costuming from the film, Game of Death) compete with comic-book superheroes who represent the diverse western cultures surrounding the area.

A fanciful choreographed movement of living colors will be generated to capture Washington Square as a place where the diverse cultural surroundings meet.

Join Mike Lai, as he offers a vivid portrait of Washington Square as a cultural melting pot, while celebrating the historical birthplace of the cultural icon, Bruce Lee!

Open Skies: Celebrating the Frontier Spirit of Today's Artists
October 19-21, 2007
3 Days - 10 San Francisco Parklands - 15 Contemporary Artists

Curated by Elliot Lessing

Open Skies is a citywide Contemporary Arts Exhibition that celebrates the spirit of wonder, renewal, and creative social action through artist-driven public projects that activate space and community resources.

Open Skies unites 15 Contemporary Artists with 10 San Francisco neighborhood parks to deliver extraordinary site-specific art projects of all media for families, new residents, and city visitors.

All exhibitions, tours, workshops, special events, and educational materials are completely free to the public. Combined, these project features highlight our neighborhood parks as living outdoor classrooms - thus transforming Open Skies into a welcoming community enrichment project.

Open Skies is at once a brilliant opportunity for families, community members, and city visitors to enjoy a rich synthesis of inspiring artistic visions, dynamic educational programming, and constructive civic engagement.
