The Feil Organization and Layer Bring Generative Digital Art Installations to Landmark Manhattan Properties
NEW YORK CITY, NY – 20/05/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – A new collaboration between The Feil Organization and Layer is transforming prominent Manhattan office buildings into immersive digital art destinations, blending historic architecture with continuously evolving generative artworks from internationally recognized digital creators.
Under the partnership, Layer’s proprietary digital art platform and display technology have been introduced at two iconic New York properties owned by The Feil Organization: 853 Broadway in Union Square and 257 Park Avenue South in the Gramercy Park district. The initiative is designed to create a more engaging and culturally connected environment for tenants and visitors by integrating real-time digital art experiences directly into commercial spaces.
Layer’s installations feature works by acclaimed digital artists including Zach Lieberman, Casey Reas, and Leander Herzog. Displayed through Layer Canvas, the company’s museum-grade digital presentation system, each artwork is rendered in real time rather than played as pre-recorded media. The result is a dynamic visual experience where artworks continuously evolve based on environmental conditions and temporal changes.
The company’s proprietary Art Intelligence
engine further enhances the experience by curating and adapting artwork selections throughout the day. According to Layer, the technology allows digital pieces to respond naturally to the atmosphere and rhythm of each location, creating installations that feel alive within the surrounding architecture.
853 Broadway, located overlooking Union Square Park, is recognized for its combination of retail space, creative offices, and corporate tenants within a classic commercial loft setting. Meanwhile, 257 Park Avenue South stands as a notable Art Deco property in Gramercy Park, offering sweeping Midtown views and a longstanding architectural presence in Manhattan.
Angelo Sotiracopoulos, founder of Layer, said the collaboration reflects a growing interest in integrating digital culture into everyday environments rather than limiting contemporary art experiences to galleries and museums.
“The Feil Organization’s properties represent the energy and creative evolution that define New York City,” Sotiracopoulos said. “By bringing generative digital art into these spaces, we are creating an environment where the artwork evolves naturally alongside the people who interact with it each day.”
Andrew Wiener, Head of Commercial Leasing at The Feil Organization, noted that the installations align with the company’s broader strategy of enhancing workplace experiences through innovative design and technology initiatives.
“We continue exploring new ways to elevate the atmosphere inside our buildings,” Wiener said. “Layer’s approach introduces a sophisticated digital art experience that complements the architectural character of these Manhattan properties while offering tenants something distinctive and engaging.”
Layer was founded by entrepreneur Angelo Sotiracopoulos, who also founded DeviantArt, one of the world’s largest online platforms for digital artists. Through collaborations with leading creators, Layer focuses on bringing generative and real-time digital artworks into commercial, residential, and cultural environments worldwide.
The partnership also reflects the increasing role of digital art within modern commercial real estate, where property owners are seeking experiential elements that blend technology, culture, and design to redefine tenant engagement.
