Adam Purple and The Garden of Eden screening



The short film, "Adam Purple and The Garden of Eden" (Directed by Amy Brost and myself) will be screened at the Brooklyn Shorts Film Festival on June 15 at Galapagos in Dumbo.   2011 marks the 25th anniversary of the destruction of The Garden of Eden, an earthwork created by Adam Purple that once spanned five city lots on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. This short film features Harvey Wang’s photographs which documents the expansion of the Garden from 1978 to 1985.
