The 14th Annual Bushwick Collective Block Party brought a wonderfully diverse array of local, national and international artists to Brooklyn’s iconic outdoor gallery. The image featured above — a masterly fusion of realism and graffiti — was painted by Lima, Peru native Roberto Seminario aka Sef1. A tribute to Bushwick Collective founder and curator Joe Ficalora, it portrays Joe as a child, playing with his cousin Frank — with Joe’s mother in the background. Several more images from the Bushwick Collective‘s new walls follow:
