NEW YORK (AP) — Next month more than the stampede of rushing commuters will be heard at Grand Central Terminal.
Thirty life-size multi-colored horses will trot through New York's major transportation hub. They're actually 60 dancers in costumes from The Ailey School.
They're the creation of Chicago-based artist Nick Cave.
HEARD NY is being presented by MTA Arts for Transit and Creative Time on March 25-31.
The dancers will perform at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. daily as a herd in Vanderbilt Hall. They'll be in smaller groups in the Main Concourse and other areas of the terminal.
The "Soundsuits" costumes will be displayed in Vanderbilt Hall when the dancers are not performing.
The costumes reference dress and ritual attire from around the world.
Cave's work is featured in many major museums.
