Artist Krzysztof Wodiczko, a Polish refugee with a Canadian passport, living in New York, has taken his art out of museums and projected it with the aid of giant slides on the sides of buildings. In this examination of the artist's philosophy of art as social contract, we see examples of his provocative work, which have been lighting up walls from London's Trafalgar Square to Zion Square in Jerusalem.
