Vision
A World in Transition
Project Stillpoint will be built in the Berkshire highlands of western Massachusetts, a hotbed of art and cultural institutions and within easy reach of New York City, Boston, The Hudson River Valley, New England, and the Eastern Seaboard, yet fully embedded in nature.
The installations will serve as vessels for experience, where focused conversations and performances can unfold, and community can gather within the very conditions of perception they establish. In this way, the works become not only structures of contemplation, but a living framework for shared inquiry.
It will include a high-tech studio complex for developing, engineering, and fabricating the installations and providing resources for residency artists, as well as other buildings and structures to support ongoing programs and activities.
Though Project Stillpoint stands within the lineage of land-based installation, from Smithson and Holt to Denes and de Maria, it brings a different proximity and tone. Project Stillpoint will be both remote and accessible, offering a permanent location for major installations within reach of the East Coast’s cultural networks, where an innovative community can take hold and thrive as a beacon for a world in transition.
