These functioning bike racks are designed by David Bryne of Talking Heads fame. Not a stranger to experimental installation art, Bryne has been designing since the 1990s and recently took over the Battery Maritime Building to transform it into a giant musical musical instrument (mainly composed of pipes, radiators and columns); the result was an old pipe organ and renamed it "Playing the Building." Only on view for a year, the bike racks will later be sold through the Pace/McGill Gallery so enjoy them before they become too expensive to view.
