‘The Portal’ is a groundbreaking public art exhibition from Lithuanian born artist, Benediktas Gylys, set to stage a live, two way video feed between O’ Connell Street and the Flatiron South Public Plaza, in Broadway, New York, that is sure to see an unprecedented amount of unsavouriness from every end.

Benediktas Gylys has this to say on his work:

“Portals aim to be a bridge to a united planet. I am grateful to the cities of Dublin and New York for pioneering innovation and welcoming their Portal sculptures, which is a significant milestone after years of work. From the initial two cities of Vilnius, Lithuania and Lublin, Poland, Portals are now expanding to be a global network.

This is just the beginning and our team will continue bringing Portals to large cities and little towns of planet Earth.”
