New York–Dublin Portal

Video portal installation connecting two cities

New York–Dublin Portal

Summary

The New York–Dublin Portal is an interactive installation created by Lithuanian artist Benediktas Gylys to allow people in New York City and Dublin to interact with each other using two 24-hour live streaming video screens. The second series of installations in Gylys' Portal series, the New York–Dublin Portal has been compared to Paul St George's past art installation named the Telectroscope, which connected New York to London in 2008. The portal first opened on May 8, 2024 and closed on September 2, 2024 due to inappropriate behaviour such as profanity and nudity. The portal was moved to Philadelphia in October 2024.
