Touring internationally since 2008, Play Me, I’m Yours is an artwork by British artist Luke Jerram. Reaching over six million people worldwide – more than 1,000 pianos have already been installed in 43 cities across the globe, from New York to London, bearing the simple instruction ‘Play Me, I’m Yours’.
Located in public parks, bus shelters and train stations, markets and even ferries the pianos are available for any member of the public to play and enjoy. Who plays them and how long they remain on the streets is up to each community. Many pianos are personalised and decorated by artists or the local community. By creating a place of exchange Play Me, I’m Yours invites the public to engage with, activate and take ownership of their urban environment.
The artwork has just finished in Melbourne and has just gone live in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico. Several of the pianos from the project in Santiago de Chile have been moved to Concepcion and La Serena for the public to play. The Street Pianos project will also be presented in Mexico City in March/April. More cities for 2014 will be announced in due course so watch this space! Read More...
