Dave McKenzie’s new work, Disturbing the View, is a Whitney-commissioned performance that draws inspiration from the entrepreneurial window washers common in many American cities. McKenzie choreographs a circuitous path around the Museum using the building’s facade as a canvas and obscuring individual windows. As he progresses, the artist inserts himself into the Museum’s daily rhythms, at times visible or hidden from sight, momentarily disrupting the view and prompting observers to consider essential labor that is often invisible.
