From Lisi Raskin’s intervention into the Rubin Museum’s exhibition “Radical Terrain,” the final exhibition of a three-part series Modernist Art from India, that examines art from post-independence India. “Radical Terrain” highlights the diverse explorations of landscape in Indian art after independence, showing how landscape was a means for artists to come to terms with the vastness of India as a new nation. See Raskin’s project for Triple Canopy, “Endgame Tourism.”  And read Lizzie Feidelson on Raskin’s installations and how “a counter-history is buried in the present landscape,” in “National Treasures.”

The smart cloud. superdilettante: The Rain Room art installation makes me want to book a flight to London, asap. Created by rAndom, it allows visitors to pass through a downpour without getting wet. Cameras map human movement in the 100-square-meter room and send instructions for the rain to move near people, yet not too near, as they traverse the space. Fascinating. (via swissmiss | Rain Room)

David Levine—Triple Canopy contributor, friend, and acclaimed Real-Worldist, will install his theatrical environment ”Habit” in NYC in September as part of PS122’s fall season. Three actors will perform a continuously-looping 90-minute drama for eight hours a day within a fully functional set where they can cook, wash, sleep, or even hide.

“Habitat” just needs a little boost…
