This week’s Pink Thing of the Day is a Pink-Paint-Encrusted Doorknob, spotted halfway down Freeman Alley — the LES’s most popular street art destination. Who knows where the door it’s attached to leads? Perhaps it’s the entrance to a secret street art speakeasy, where the walls are covered with wheat pastes and the cocktails come in spray cans. Or maybe it’s a portal to a parallel universe where doorknobs play an entirely different role in society. Stay curious, and don’t forget to get your tetanus shot.
This gorgeous Damien Hirst-Designed Cup and Saucer Set — where each pairing is patterned after one of Hirst’s iconic works — is on sale at MOMA’s 6th floor gift shop. Own the complete set of six designs for only $180!
I took this photo this past Thursday night, of a large scale print representation of the Damien Hirst sculpture For The Love of God, displayed in the window of DTR Modern Galleries (458 West Broadway) in Soho. It is not a great photo, due to the high glare off the shop window, but I just love this work so much, I had to put it up.
This Hot Pink Blinged Out Cake Mixer sits in the front display window at Georgetown Cupcake on Prince Street in New York City. We heard that it was a gift to one of the owners (they are a pair of sisters, so we are not sure which one owns this awesome thing) from her husband. Wow, nothing says Love to me like the gift of a Hot Pink Swarovski Crystal-studded Cake Mixer. Happy Love! Happy Valentines Day!
