intro art work participating artists reviews documentation  
Civil Disturbances was a public art project that presented two sets of 20 street signs created by teams of artists working in collaboration with legal scholars for more than a year and a half.

One group was posted around the heart of New York's legal community in Lower Manhattan. The others were placed at site-specific locations

Each colorful, insightful street marker presented, in a vivid visual context, the story of past and on-going landmark legal cases that help secure basic rights for the people of New York City and in many cases, the entire nation. Our sponsor for this project was The New York Lawyers for the Public Interest.
