"NUIT BLANCHE" BRING TO LIGHT NEW YORK

One of the things I really love about this city is the constant cavalcade of visual surprises. Usually they are things I come across in the course of daily rambles, but there are also numerous events concocted by various cultural agencies to enlighten and amuse.This past weekend we went to a nighttime contemporary art festival on the waterfront in Greenpoint 
Brooklyn, called Bring to Light or Nuit Blanche New York. It was billed as an "immersive spectacle of site-specific light, sound, performance and projection by over 50 artists".
