'Greater New York,' the third iteration of the quinquennial exhibition organized by MoMA PS1 and The Museum of Modern Art, showcases some 68 artists and collectives living and working in the metropolitan New York area. The 2010 exhibition will not only present recent work made within the past five years, but also will foster a productive workshop where artists are invited to experiment with new ideas within MoMA PS1's building for the duration of the exhibition. Covering a full range of practices and media, the artists in 'Greater New York' are inspired by living in one of the most diverse and provocative centers of cultural activity in the world. The exhibition centers largely on the process of creation and the generative nature of the artist's studio and practice. A number of artists have been commissioned to work in residence in MoMA PS1's gallery space to shoot photographs and video, rehearse and realize performances, and stretch the notions of sculpture, painting, photography, film, and video-making.
