Ryan Gander: The Happy Prince This fall, Public Art Fund will present a new commission by Ryan Gander entitled The Happy Prince. Drawing inspiration from Oscar Wilde's beloved children's story, Gander will transform the final moments of the story — the scene of the fallen statue — into a lyrical work reminiscent of a romantic ruin for his first public art commission in the United States. Gander will also launch the fall 2010 Public Art Fund Talks series with one of his celebrated Loose Associations presentations on Thursday, September 16 at 6:30pm at The New School's John Tishman Auditorium. In conjunction with these projects, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum will present a new commission by Gander, opening October 1, in its Aye Simon Reading Room as part of the museum's Intervals series.
