There's a new outdoor exhibition sitting pretty atop the Gawker HQ rooftop called MOM & POPism that you can go check out today. (In fact, it's only open today through 4 p.m., but if you miss out on this public viewing you can make an appointment throughout the month.) We headed to 210 Elizabeth Street yesterday to see the installation for ourselves; it's like a colorful old New York up there! The show was curated by Billi Kid and reinterprets James and Karla Murray's latest book, Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York ("a breathtaking visual guide to New York City’s cultural heritage, with special emphasis on the historic streets and ethnic shops that have defined its many neighborhoods").
Bonus: the view isn't so bad, if you don't mind those pangs of rooftop envy.






If you can't make it to this the Murray's photographs are on display at the Clic gallery at Broome and Centre.
post this at 2pm and it ends at 4pm. I read this at 2:50 pm. DOH!
You can make an appointment!
This looks worth the appointment. Plus, we are going to have great weather in the next few days.
"We're told these little rockets on the wall. aren't a part of the exhibit, someone came in and graffitied the graffiti wall!
Those aren't "rockets", those are Stickman figures. BTW Stickman rocks...
I just saw a Stickman figure in the crosswalk on Michigan Ave. in Chicago at Lollapalooza. Represent!
