Dorian Grey‘s current exhibit, East Village Alchemy, takes us on a magical foray through the East Village’s 1980’s street art scene presenting a range of artworks by four of its key practitioners. Here’s a sampling:
Keith Haring subway drawing, early 80’s
Paolo Buggiani, Performance Art, Unsuccessful Attack to the World Trade Center, 1983
Ken Hiratsuka, whose intricately-carved artworks have been part of our city’s visual landscape since the early 80’s
Scot Borofsky, whose symbol-based graphics graced the walls of the East Village in the 80’s
The Dorian Grey Gallery is located at 437 East 9th Street at Avenue A in Manhattan’s East Village..

Wow, this looks like a great site, who do I thank for the photos?
Can I post other, historical, installation photos of my street art in the East Village during the eighties?
I would love to post them and find out a bit about them. Feel free to contact me at loisstavsky@gmail.com
