Went to Nolita on Sunday to get our hair trimmed and came across this recently posted wheatpaste by Matt Siren. Love the high-contrast black-and-white illustrative style. Reminds us of that character “Emily.” Or a character you might find in a indie graphic novel. This piece of street art (or guerrillaContinue Reading

It’s not unusual in downtown Manhattan to see storefront shutters decorated (or defaced) with graf, street art or murals. This one on Elizabeth Street in Nolita is among the best we’ve ever seen. “Hello” shows the artist’s deft use of color and typographic sensibility. This rules. Ivan Corsa Photo

This is an awesome piece of work: The words “FAME GAME” spelled out with a wood frame and affixed to the side of that cynosure of downtown Manhattan street art, the building at 11 Spring Street, in Nolita. This work is on the Elizabeth Street side of the building. TheContinue Reading

Our girl “Claw” strikes again. This time with the “F.C.” signature. Go figure. This up is on a wall along Crobsy Street, the last of the great, dirty SoHo backstreets. Though this canyon-like lane looks largely untouched by the rampant commercialization that has made most of SoHo, in effect, aContinue Reading
