50,000 BEDS (2007)

Collaborative Video Project
Commissioned by The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum (Ridgefield), Artspace (New Haven), and Real Art Ways (Hartford)

50,000 Beds is an exploration of the interdependent roles of art and tourism, a collaboration with the three presenting organizations, the artists, and the hotel/business community. Forty-five artists/teams were invited to create short videos, each set in a different hotel, motel, or inn across Connecticut. The videos were then grouped and installed, fifteen at each venue.
