Stikman Lives!
Photo By Gail
Hey, NYC street art enthusiasts, remember when you used to see Stikman everywhere? I haven’t seen him as much around town recently, but I did spot this nice Stikman Stencil right outside of Jonathan LeVine Gallery’s West 23rd Street space. So, I thought I should snap him. Stikman Lives!
Will Ryman’s Bird at the Flatiron Plaza
Photos By Gail
Bird (2012), is a 12-foot high, 12-foot wide, and 14-foot long sculpture, made with fifty-five hundred actual and fabricated nails in the shape of a bird. The work weighs five tons, and rests upon a nest of ninety thousand nails. Through this sculpture, Ryman changes the meaning of the nail, which is traditionally used to connect materials and build structures. By dramatically altering its scale and using it in excessive quantities, Ryman blurs the relationship between abstraction and realism. As the viewer rotates around the sculpture, Bird transitions from the shape of a bird to a nonrepresentational sculpture.
Bird will be on Display through April 21st, 2013

Because, Lisa and I are all about the Bacon. Continue reading Bacon Thing of The Day: Rickshaw Dumplings Bacon Feast From Thrillist Rewards!
