A multi-post

It's been a surprisingly art filled week. My walk around Soho at lunchtime on Tuesday started it off with a street art theme.
First I came across this truck with its mobile sculpture.

Then, this striking doorway with the ubiquitous OBEY posters that I pass often, but never before noticed the palms.


Across from Deitch I saw a man and woman writing on a billboard, and apparently leaving lots of Post-Its behind. (They all had MEMORY written on them.) Upon following the link scrawled on the wall, I came to the site of anonymous art.



On my way back to the office, I noticed this little bit of art in the composition of, and on a hydrant.

Wednesday I was able to take a few pics of these lovely lampshades that have been up in Washington Square Park all summer. I just love them. Especially at night when they are lit, they are a delightful bit of jewlery on the otherwise sad looking street lamps.

Tonight I went to Paulette Lust's opening at Riot. Her handpainted silks are vibrant and beautiful. My favorite was the giraffes. Their tropical feel was a perfect end of summer night's stage for her husband Gerard's new premium cachaca, Leblon, and caipirinia's expertly made by hand one at a time. This could be the next hot spirit. Also check out Paulette's other art: coffee.
