Across Manhattan — from Soho to Chelsea to Tribeca — works by Robert Longo and Sasha Stiles have taken over public space as part of Take One Action, presented by Art At A Time Like This.

Installed across 30 locations throughout the city, the project brings art into the rhythm of everyday life, inviting unexpected encounters between the works and the people moving through them. Through image, language, and action, both artists ask what it means to participate, respond, and remain present within this moment.

Each installation includes a QR code linking viewers to artist-led actions and prompts for collective engagement.

Spotted on West Broadway and throughout downtown Manhattan.

Take One Action is an initiative of Art at a Time Like This, pairing images with actions that can save democracy. Up until the midterm election, ATLT will continue this campaign, urging civic engagement as an antidote to resignation and hopeless.

Sasha Stiles is a first-generation Kalmyk-American artist and poet of Indigenous Oirat-Mongol descent whose work uses language to explore what it means to be human in a more-than-human age. A leading voice of the generative era, she advances poetry as a vital artistic medium and enduring technology of memory and consciousness — a form of poetic intelligence that bridges emotion and algorithm, intuition and logic, flesh and code.
