6. Times Square Heart of Hearts Kissing Booth

TimesSquareArts-Heart of Hearts Untapped Cities AFineLyne“Collective-LOK” is the winner of this year’s annual Times Square Valentine Heart Design

Over the past eight years, the Times Square Alliance has invited architecture and design firms to submit proposals for a Valentine’s Day installation. This year, Collective-LOK is the winner. CLOK’s Heart of Hearts is a faceted ring of twelve golden, mirrored hearts that will create an alternative pavilion, which in turn, creates a kaleidoscope reflecting the constant movement and color of Times Square. Inside the ring, you will find diamond-shaped spaces with six kissing booths, all mirrored and reflecting your Heart of Hearts. We hope its contagious. The Heart of Hearts will be on display starting February 9th.

Also, Times Square Arts and the Midnight Moment Program will present Busi (Kitty) (2001), the video of a cat drinking milk, every night at 11:57 pm during the month of February, coinciding with a Guggenheim Museum Event about the artists  Fischli/Weiss.
