The construction wall at 10th Avenue near 23rd is endlessly interesting. I showed pictures of it a while back when it was in a Clyford Still mode. Now this:

I'll be back later this week with images from Don Voisine at McKenzie Fine Art, Donna Sharrett at Pavel Zoubok, and John Salvest at Morgan Lehman. Yes, I'm late with everything I saw in May, but something got in the way. What was it? Oh, right. Life.

Art on the Street

.

This is not the first time I've posted images of Chelsea's street color, but it's the first time I've commented on the references to Steir, Indiana, Pollock and Rothko.

Steir on the Street? Shot on 21st Street, outside Eyebeam Gallery

Same location, different reference




A few Pollockian drips on 20th Street

Rothko on a dumpster?

These images were taken over the course of several months, so they may not be there now.

For more ephemeral art, visit Joy Garnett's Newsgrist. She's got a series of Found Art--fleeting "installations" like this, this, this and this.

Update, August 3: In his blog, In it for Life, Tim McFarlane shows a fabulous "Rothko Wall" in Philly.
