Foggy Day inspires debate in the media. Matthew Geller's Foggy Day is a temporary, open-air installation in which a section of Cortlandt Alley between White and Walker Streets in New York was shrouded in fog. Its use of public funds inspired debate in media venues, including an article on the front page of The New York Sun and in a report on New York's Fox 5 evening news. Foggy Day's installation ran from October 3 through November 14. COMING SOON: A Channel Exclusive conversation between artists Dread Scott and Matthew Geller, recorded on-site at Geller's Foggy Day exhibition.

The Ameri©an Dre@m exhibition at Ronald Feldman Fine Arts has released a four-color, fifty-page catalog that features the work of many Creative Capital grantees.
