Bringing a touch of the 1920’s to First Street Green Art Park on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, the prolific Brooklyn-based muralist Lexi Bella painted the image featured above last month on the occasion of FSG’s 2nd annual New Year New Murals & Clothing Drive. What follows are several more faces fashioned by artists in NYC open spaces that I’ve encountered in recent meanderings around the city:
Moscow-born, NYC-based Urban Russian Doll in Manhattan’s Chinatown
Brooklyn-based self-taught Haitian American artist Alan Aine in Park Slope, Brooklyn
Bronx-native Andre Trenier in East Harlem with the 2021 Grandscale Mural Project
British-Israeli artist Solomon Souza in Crown Heights, Brooklyn
