Vintage 1970s Photos Show Lost Sites of NYC's Lower East Side
A quest to find his grandmother's birthplace led Richard Marc Sakols on a mission to capture his changing neighborhood on film.
The latest Banksy is a play on the gallery in an outdoor space under the High Line at West 24th Street. It appears to be a collaboration with Brazilian twins Os Gemeos, whom we previously covered for his massive mural in Boston.
On Banky’s website, he writes:
Are you the sort of person who enjoys going to art galleries, but wished they had more gravel in them? Then this temporary exhibition space is for you. Housing just two paintings but also featuring a bench, some carpet and complimentary refreshments. Opens today through Sunday 11am til midnight.
