New York City had Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s saffron Gates – Charleston will soon have the Clothesline Project. The March street installation art project will be part of the exhibit, “30 Artists Think Yellow,” at Annex Gallery, Taylor Books.

Developed by Gazz blogger and Charleston artist Amy Williams, the installation piece will include yellow clothing items recreated into a large outdoor piece of fabric art. In an effort to promote public art, Williams has invited people to donate yellow clothing, scarves, fabric, etc. in a box at Taylor Books. “It’s a great way to recycle items and people can see their part of the whole piece when it’s completed.”

The exhibit invites artists to create a literal or conceptual response to yellow. The exhibit will hang March 6 through 31 with a reception March 16. Clothing items are needed within the next week and can be left in the yellow box inside the door at Taylor Books.
