Street Art Makes It to Top of Williamsburg Bridge

Today the Wooster Collective posted a few photos of Judith Supine way at the tippy top of the Williamsburg Bridge, hanging his piece titled: "Above the City in a Summer Night Dream." This one seemed like a much more dangerous project than previous pieces (for example the fifty-foot-tall piece he hung over the side of the very same bridge, and two years ago he lowered one off the Manhattan Bridge). Again, we challenge Supine to bring his next piece into the Gowanus Canal.

but can you see it from the Highline? inquiring prudes want to know.

i hear woody allen is interested in buying this piece.

I hear he's had to pay for every piece he's had...

Will it still be "art" when it blows off and kills someone?

It's debatable whether it's art even where it is. All "Judith Supine" is interested in is shock value.

that isn't the tippy top of the bridge. if it was, you wouldn't see the cable going up above. and you -can- get to the tippy top, and there is graffiti there. but i guess you have to use naked women to get publicity for your top of the bridge 'art'.

did she have permission for this? the bburg bridge is really easy to climb (there are stairs) but i know a while back a bunch of dudes got arrested because someone thought they were terrorists when they saw folks on the bridge.
