Palazzo Chupi Loses Color

2909770457_beb4fd1553_m.jpgThere are some disturbing photos over at Curbed, somewhat reminiscent of that horrific image from E.T. where the alien's seemingly lifeless, pale body is found in the gutter. Julian Schnabel's Palazzo Chupi is losing its color! It seems like just yesterday it was generating rainbows, but now the site reports, "Its skin is peeling and it looks like there are some deep gashes over its eyes. It's also screaming out in pain, but in a high-pitched frequency only our ears are attuned to. Permits just posted on the Department of Buildings website mention the scaffold erection and sidewalk shed, but the extent of Chupi's care is unclear."
