In late September 2007, Storefront will celebrate its 25th anniversary with a new edition of its first event. Entitled Performance Z - A, this 26 - day celebration will be hosted in Petrosino Park, adjacent to Storefront, in a specially built pavilion designed by Korean architect Minsuk Cho.

For 26 days, from September 21 to October 16, 2007, the protagonists of Storefront's past, present and future will host 26 evening events including performances, concerts, open discussions, film screenings and interviews. Participants will include Stalker Lab, Bjarke Ingels / BIG, Vito Acconci, Florian Boehm and Luca Pizzaroni, Stefano Boeri, Eyal Weizman, Anselm Franke, Minsuk Cho, Pedro Reyes, Akiko Miyake, Barbara Held, Dan Graham, Arlene Schloss, Armin Linke, Ruben Ochoa, Frederic Tuten, robbinschilds, Center for Urban Pedagogy, Jill Majid, DJ N - Ron, Academie Schloss Solitude, Tomas Saraceno, Forum for Urban Design and many more.

Performance Z - A will be part of a city - wide celebration of the 40th anniversary of art programming in New York City's parks, during which public parks around the city will host installations by a wide range of artists, both emergent and well - known.
