The History Of The Bowery/Houston Street Graffiti Mural Wall In NYC

This looks cool:

"
Almost 30 years ago, Keith Haring put up the first mural on the Houston Street wall, a concrete slab just off of Bowery in New York. For decades, the wall had been bombed by illegal graffiti and various commercial ads, but over the past few years, the wall has seen new life through the help of curator Jeffrey Deitch and the wall's owner, Tony Goldman. The two friends began sanctioning murals at this location in 2008, and have since collaborated with artists including Os Gemeos and Shepard Fairey."

Go to the link and see all the different looks the wall has had over the years.

  1. LED line lights have also become hugely popular
    for household usage. Consumers "going green" have already
    begun switching out their incandescent bulbs for compact
    fluorescents, which are miniature full-sized fluorescents.
    Where By By turf carp communities are perhaps taken all the way through selling such as a biocontrol needed for noxious pernicious weeds, they should be taken back within the water in and additionally unscathed.
