NEW YORK — A large fiberglass sculpture in the shape of a military drone hovers 25 feet above the High Line, the elevated public park on Manhattan's West Side. Although from afar it might be mistaken for the real thing, this drone is a piece by artist Sam Durant, who uses the work to discuss the terrorism of surveillance.
Looking at "Untitled (drone)" in the middle of a bright day is the perfect way to start a whirlwind art tour of New York City. In the span of a long weekend, it's possible to take in a good amount of art that will sustain you for months.
