Galleries don’t have to be in big, grand buildings. Or even in buildings at all. Station to Station is a cargo-train-cum-gallery, which displays works of art as it travels across the US.
Conceived by artist Doug Aitken, the train will travel from New York to San Francisco, with ten stops along the way. Inside, visitors will be able to see experimental work by renowned artists like Kenneth Anger, Urs Fischer, Carsten Höller, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Ariel Pink, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Dan Deacon.
While the train’s moving, it will become a work of art in itself, lighting up in bright colours that will be visible for miles around.
