Pichiavo last week at the bowery wall with Martha Cooper
response to curbed.com Bowery Mural piece.Because the Wall had a history, because of the location, and because the Wall became just a dumping ground, not in use, Elsa Rensaa and I took it for most of the summer of 1990. This was during the years of social unrest in the East Village. My art was a political message relating to Justice and Democracy. My piece is on my Facebook page. After we activated the Wall, Tony Goldman, a few months later, turned it into a billboard. Chico, the LES muralist, went over for my piece for a wine ad. Because I am in the same community as Chico and he never told me he was getting paid to go over my image I went over and buffed his piece with brown paint. I went to one of his spots, Explained what was up and he later stopped by my place. We worked it out and we were good. -clayton patterson
This man has done great things for artists and the scene. Can't wait to see his new digs in Jersey but not before he sets his current place off in style.
The Lazy Hustler doing his thing. Been a while since I've been to one and if you haven't its a must.
