HCC Art Galleries’ Now on View returns to Ybor City with four hours of interactive public art, poetry and dance in three venues. Six Tampa artists are participating in the free one-day public art festival, contributing installations and performances that reflect on Tampa’s past, present and future:
1. Victoria Alvarez presents a temperature-sensitive poster print you must touch to see. Bring your friends and work together to reveal the underlying images, exposed by your hands’ warmth, in this personal tribute to Tampa’s LGBTQIA+ history at Kress Contemporary.
2. FAX 727 289 3069 brings a Tampa history-themed poetry alley to Hotel Haya.
3. Jehoshaphat Jacinto celebrates Ybor City’s rich and diverse history with a street dance battle. How-to demos teach participants how to pop, lock, break and vogue.
4. Erin Lekovic encourages Tampa audiences to participate in a new 15-minute site-specific play inspired by Samuel Kress at Kress Contemporary.
5. Working in collaboration with Amanda Gabaldon, Emma Quintana invites Now on View participants to dance with disaster in a new art installation inspired by Tampa’s recent hurricanes and recovery efforts.
6. Florist Kali Rabaut welcomes guests to step into her infinity mirror and explore how botanicals connect us to our past, present and future.
