Although Bushwick has evolved into Brooklyn’s largest free open-air gallery, Williamsburg remains home to a range of both sanctioned and unsanctioned street art and graffiti in an array of media and styles. Here’s a sampling of what we came upon yesterday:

Within the same 10-block radius of Bushwick’s vibrant graffiti walls are some of NYC’s most expressive street art pieces. While many are fashioned by locals, others are the work of artists from abroad who leave their mark on Bushwick’s walls. These range from C215’s 2009 seductive stencils – some of which we’ve only recently uncovered — to huge pieces by ROA on some of Bushwick’s grittier walls.
