Artist Team Leonardogillesfleur Defies Gravity, Hogs Sidewalk

If you were to whittle down Sufjan Stevens’s recent orchestral suite, The BQE (30 minutes of angry beats, horns happily trilling, and screeching strings) and David Blaine’s Vertigo (35 hours of the brawny magician's standing on a 105-foot-tall pillar over Bryant Park), you might get Remake of a Remake from leonardogillesfleur, 1 minute, 54 seconds, of two figures, one falling (or flying), the other quietly witnessing, all set to the background noise of Brooklyn traffic. See this and other videos — of ladies eating ice cream, couples kissing, teens smoking — at George Adams Gallery through May 17. —Emma Pearse
