Platform Diving


I've shown this image once before, along with
a couple other examples of subway art,
but at the time I knew nothing about it (and
was apparently too lazy to find out).
Now I can say that it's one of seven mosaic-tile
murals by Deborah Brown at the
Houston Street subway station.  The name of the
whole installation is "Platform Diving"
(clever—and I love the way she imagines the
station under water).

Tina's Picstory—"M"

In this case, M is for "mural" (and also maybe "movement").

The first mural to occupy this space at the corner of
Houston and Bowery was a 2008 recreation of Keith Haring's
famous 1982 Bowery mural. Since then, 

several artists' works have graced this wall.
The latest (since July 2012) is this one by Lady Aiko.

Houston Street



I love this Keith Haring mural—
it just brightens up the whole
neighborhood. I like our prez
peeking out on the right too.
