King, Bowery & Spring, NYC, USA

Street Art: Bar Nana


Bar Nana, Chelsea, New York City, USA

Interesting street art on Bar Nana's entrance on Gansevoort Street, Manhattan. The style inside the club, which combines South American and French influences, is worlds away from the entrance.

Street Art: Old Woman


Old Woman, Bowery & Spring, New York City, USA

190 Bowery is an interesting building. The Germania bank was built around 1890 and has been a graffiti and street art covered private residence for years. It's just been sold and will probably be turned into condos in the near future. The graffiti and street art on this building are incredible - especially if you move in close and focus on detail, like this old women's face.

Street Art: Watertank Project




The Watertank Project, Chelsea, New York City, USA

Art is wrapped around NYC watertanks to foster environmental awareness and social advocacy. A beautiful idea! These two tanks can be seen from the High Line in Chelsea (around 29th Street and 10th Avenue). There are a few more around the city and hopefully many more to come.
