Flow Separation is a new exhibition by New York-based artist Tauba Auerbach in which the historic Fireboat John J. Harvey will be painted in a contemporary ‘dazzle camouflage’ pattern. Throughout the summer and fall, the dazzled fireboat will be anchored at various docks around New York Harbor and on weekends will offer free, timed trips for the public, continuing John J. Harvey’s 18-year tradition since her retirement as a working fireboat.
