ext 17 artforum.com picks ext 17!

The Swiss Institute - Contemporary Art's phone line are aglow and buzzing with two-minute recordings by our favorite artists. The S I aims to activate art in every corner and crevice of our gallery space at 495 Broadway, from our hallways to our library and down to our lobby window and onto the streets.

Now, with ext 17, we are extending our projects to the S I's telephone wires.
