These colorful 3 dimensional boxes by Taped have been re-framing parts of our urban environment, causing you to imagine spaces in ways that you hadn’t considered. …Maybe he/she is a sibling of Ellis G.

Projekt Projektor was this weekend
and we had such a blast with all the fun art fans on the streets of Dumbo for the Dumbo Under the Bridge Festival. Over the 3 day event it is estimated that 150,000 people flood through the neighborhood to see artist studios, galleries, and multitudes of public art installations. Together with mind-bendingly talented projectionists Josh Ott (SuperDraw), Jeremy Slater, SeeJ, and The Housewive’s Guide to Anatomy, Brooklyn Street Art projected images from the book and others from the booming scene by Jaime Rojo onto the side of the Manhattan Bridge, among other architectural surfaces.
The definition of street art was expanded again – mounted at Halcyon on the Pearl Street Triangle, with a live soundtrack performed by four New York electronic DJ’s streaming live on DailySessions.com.

Not a lot of work by fine artist Elbowtoe to be seen on the street recently, as he is rumored to be feverishly preparing for a massive rollout in gargantuan galleries globally (just getting carried away with colorful descriptors, sorry)….. That’s why this poignant pasteup seems so much more precious.

This two panel installation on the corner of North 8th and Driggs appeared, mysteriously disappeared, and re-appeared within one week! Stories abound – but our favorite one is that construction dudes took it down to access the work-site and kind of damaged it, so they reinstalled the panels stronger and more solidly than before. That’s teamwork!
