Screening of Gateways to New York: Othmar H. Ammann and His Bridges

Join us at the Archtober x Data Vandals newsstand takeover to enjoy a selected feature film directed by Martin Witz from Architecture & Design Film Festival (ADFF) in NYC’s smallest, hottest, loudest cinema.

Data Vandals is an NYC-based art duo comprised of artist Jen Ray and data visualization designer Jason Forrest, who turn public data into community conversations. Since April of this year, their former newsstand-turned-data art gallery has hosted rotating exhibitions, sticker surveys, live events, music, and a free newspaper. The interior opens a few times a week, but the exterior murals are around the clock, read by roughly 52,000 riders a day.

The Architecture & Design Film Festival celebrates the unique creative spirit that drives architecture and design. Through a curated selection of films, events, and conversations, ADFF brings together compelling stories about the people, ideas, and places shaping our designed world. The festival entertains, engages, and inspires audiences who are curious about architecture, design, and the impact they have on our lives.

Archtober is New York City’s month-long festival, celebrating architecture and design throughout the city and beyond. Through collaboration with the festivals partners, Archtober provides exhibitions, talks, tours, and special events that are free and accessible to all.
