Artwork looks at how to make LI housing unique

How to make housing developments on Long Island and elsewhere more individual is the focus of Dan Graham's piece "Homes for America 1966-67," currently on view at the Museum of Modern Art's show "Color Chart: Reinventing Color 1950 to Today." The suggested layout for an article he wrote for Arts Magazine opens with several Long Island place names: Garden City, Garden City Park, Greenlawn, Island Park, Levittown, New Hyde Park, Plainview and Plandome Manor. "Color is a primary vehicle offered to consumers as a potential for individualism in tract housing," says a card next to the work in the show, is up through May 12.
