Join David Allen Burns and Austin Young / Fallen Fruit at Parrish Art Museum on June 23! part of COMMUNITY DAY: SAVOR THE SUMMER.

Fallen Fruit Talk & Art Project | 11 AM–1:30 PM
Join the art collaboration Fallen Fruit in a talk and participatory art project plus tastings of local foods!

https://parrishart.org/event/savor-summer-arts-food-festival/

David Allen Burns and Austin Young / Fallen Fruit present an informal discussion about their twenty-year practice of commissioned art projects in the public realm. These immersive experience-based artworks are created for cities around the world. The selected works are often considered contemporary portraits of a city or place. Using strategies of collage and collaboration, Austin and David from Fallen Fruit will create a topical magazine with participants. Join us and contribute to the digital zine created specifically for the Parrish Art Museum and the East End of Long Island.

“For our work, we are committed to making artworks that celebrate the public and local history. We love to make art with people. Storytelling and artmaking during the events become … a portrait of the place or everyone who is there that day. The magazine itself becomes an artwork that is made from the public and by the public. Much of the art work we make is serialized work and the collections represent cities around the world. In this way, the works are extending and reactivating in different ways, new exhibitions and practices.”—David Allen Burns and Austin Young / Fallen Fruit

'Marriage of the Sea (The R**e of Venice)' weaves a visual and conceptual narrative about the ancestral bond between La Serenissima and the Adriatic Sea. A participatory project is programmed at the opening of the exhibition with artist Irene Machetti where everyone is invited to marry the sea, challenging visitors to rethink the idea of dominion over the sea. “For hundreds of years on Ascension Day, a sacrifice was made. A glorious golden ring was thrown into the water that affirmed Venice's dominion over the Adriatic Sea. The magic of this divine sacrifice was so powerful that it lasted centuries. Amid a dwindling population, the fouling of her canals, increasingly encroaching tides, and the loss of community through short term rentals, it is time to re-invoke this ancient vow: ‘Desponsamus te, mare, in signum veri perpetuique dominii!’ We marry you, sea, as a symbol of true and perpetual dominion!”

Fallen Fruit / David Allen Burns and Austin Young interview : We said, ‘Well, it’s not really a fruit tree, it’s a work of art. And if a sculpture can be made out of wood, then this particular sculpture just happens to be made out of wood that’s alive, and it just happens to bear fruit.’

A Los Angeles-based art duo creates public orchards that allow community members to harvest fresh fruit and rethink their ideas about nature.

Altar to Dionysus
Animated Photographs
2023
This projection appears on the iconic FAO building in Rome all this week with the World Food Forum curated by Tramandars / Tani Russo
This photographic animated artwork projected on the iconic FAO building was originally created for Feudi di San Gregorio in Sorbo Serpico and was inspired by a visit to an ancient temple and vineyard at an archeological site on Mt. Vesuvius near Somma Vesuviana. The hills of this region have been covered by vineyards since Roman times. Dionysus, pictured, is the god of winemaking, orchards, fruit, vegetation and fertility, and was patron saint of this land.
In this reconfigured artwork, the artists create a tribute to abundance, sustainability, the beauty of planet earth's biodiversity (flowers and fruit) and the idea that from ancient to modern times, our humanity is a celebration. Feudi di San Gregorio ❤️🍇

David Allen Burns and Austin Young, the artistic duo forming Fallen Fruit, create immersive and captivating environments that offer audiences a fresh and unexpected perspective on fruit trees and museum collections, while simultaneously unveiling complex social constructs. Los Angeles-based collective started their artistic practice by creating maps of public fruit: the fruit trees growing on or over public property. Their extensive body of work encompasses a diverse range of mediums—photographic portraits, experimental documentary videos, and site-specific art. By utilising fruit as a medium to explore the familiar, along with public spaces and archives, Fallen Fruit delves into the uncharted territories of urban spaces, knowledge systems, and evolving notions of citizenship.

It's a beautiful day to check out Fallen Fruits's "Lago Seco Fruit Trail", a living permanent public artwork, at Lago Seco Park.

It was installed in 2021 as part of the museum’s public art project ULTRA!

Fallen Fruit's projects invite people to experience their city as a fruitful, generous place, to collectively reimagine the functions of public participation and urban space—to ponder forms of located citizenship, and to explore the meaning of community and neighborhood through creating and sharing new and abundant resources. As a part of Fallen Fruit's contribution to ULTRA, Fallen Fruit installed a community Fruit Park, located in Lago Seco Park around the perimeter of the community garden.
