New York Snapshot

My most recent visit to New York was a lot more hectic than usual, and wonderfully so. Four museum exhibits in about as many days, visits to the Metropolitan, the Cooper Hewitt, the Neue Galerie, the National Museum of the American Indian, and the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology, New York. Phew!

I didn't get my usual chance to go tour Williamsburg for graffiti, but there was a piece by Frank Shepard Fairy (of OBEY fame) that I'd wanted to get a better photograph of a while back, on the Bowery, so with the brief hour or so of free time I had, I found myself among New York's most mysterious beauty once again. Oh, graffiti, how I've missed you.

New York "Public Art Museum" Series I

I took these photos while visiting my friend Andrew back in 2014. Guess it's taken me a while to put them up! We were out walking in Williamsburg, and since I was graffiti hunting Andrew took me over to the warehouse district, where practically every other wall is covered with someone's scrawl. A lot of businesses have commissioned artists to do murals there as well, and there's a few studios that have set up in the warehouses over there. It's just an amazing place, definitely worth a look for the everchanging art exhibit on public display for all to see. Cheers to New York.
