13. Repohistory Our inaugural project was inspired by the celebration surrounding the quincentennial of Columbus' "discovery" of the Americas. While the country planned to commemorate a carefully selected history of Columbus' legacy, REPOhistory created a project that presented alternative views of history. In keeping with the our general philosophy of making art more accessible to the public, REPOhistory arranged a parade for the opening ceremonies and later did walking tours. Lower Manhattan Sign Project

14. 1. The New York Slave Market Perhaps the best way to describe the objective for this project is illustrated by this sign. Lower Manhattan is filled with official historical markers. A sign marks the site of the first outdoor Stock Market. The Slave Market, located across the street, was unmarked until the REPOhistory sign. In 1746 the New York Slave Market was the 2nd largest in the country. Artists: Tess Timoney & Mark O'Brien.

15. 2. Stock Market Crashes Placed in front of the New York Stock Exchange, this sign challenges the myths of the free market economy and that stockbrokers jumped out of windows along Wall Street after the 1929 stock market crash. The sign documents that government deregulation and fraud led to market crashes and depressions at the turn of the 20th century, the 1920 and the 1980s. Artist: Jim Costanzo.

16. 5. The First Chinese Community in New York City A memorial to those Chinese traders and seamen who, in the 1830's, formed the first Chinese residential community in the United States in the area around what is now the South Street Seaport. Artist: EPOXY Art Group. 8. Frances Wright: Racial and Sexual Equality The sign commemorates a site where Frances Wright, a prominent 19th century proponent of women's rights and opponent of slavery, delivered a public address in 1819. It gives a brief biography of Wright and includes excerpts form her speeches. Artists: Josely Carvalho & Deborah Mesa-Pelly.

19. Public green space is an important factor in urban life- it is a respite from the concrete and asphalt environment of the city, and functions as a place to gather, relax, play, and experience a bit of nature. The Public Green project creates new meaning for these spaces, illustrating the complex and symbiotic relationship between the development of parkland and the growth of the city. This mapping of publicly accessible green space in the city and environs is distributed throughout the public transit system, inside city buses and in transit shelters. Lize Mogel
