Today on Leonard Lopate at Large, Leonard has a conversation with Dr. Gabrielle Bendiner-Viani, an urbanist, curator, and artist known for her pioneering work in public arts and urban research for community engagement.

Her recent public art and dialogue project, Intersection | Prospect Heights, in partnership with the Brooklyn Public Library, engaged thousands of New Yorkers on the critical subjects of displacement and development.

Today Dr. Gabrielle Bendiner-Viani talks about her book “Contested City: Art and Public History as Mediation at New York’s Seward Park Urban Renewal Area” and some recent local projects she’s been involved in.
