Forest Project
Leda Franklin and Paul Solomon worked collaboratively with farmers, lumberjacks, and dancers, to produce the Forest Project. The installation and performances were co-sponsored by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, with some support from Con Edison.
A 3-minute news broadcast about the work was aired in New York City on CBS television and is available here.
