A delightfully disorienting public-art exhibition, aptly titled “Double Take,” will be unveiled at the MetroTech Center in Downtown Brooklyn this Wednesday. This comically bent—yet still operating—steel lamppost is one of five works commissioned by the Public Art Fund. There’s also a chain-link fence arranged into a cube and a ghostlike sculpture of a pilgrim (Myrtle Ave. nr. Flatbush Ave.).
