The High Line Billboard series takes advantage of decommissioned billboards that remain from the Chelsea neighborhood’s industrial past as a quintessential example of urban reuse.
By repurposing these once-commercial platforms adjacent to the park into playful yet provocative artistic interventions into the surrounding cityscape, the program expands beyond the bounds of the High Line’s pathways at immense scale for the passing public. Past billboards include works by John Baldessari, Faith Ringgold, Raymond Pettibon, and Jessie Homer French.
