\"\"<\/a>
\nthe street art in Bushwick – has a very different ‘take’ – than that in Williamsburg, but both share a real, sharp – ‘edge’.
\nsee: NYC’S BACKYARD . . . BROOKLYN\/APRIL 29, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nthe ubiquitous SHEPARD FAIREY piece – is a rather industrial-looking, large square, monochrome, vintage penny stamp-like ‘OBEY’. it suits the industrial street – very well. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nnext to it, is some real contrarian counter-intuitive street poetry. a ‘lyric’ – whose story-board narrative is deceptively: harsh, despite the pretty pix. right on.
\nthough, it’s definite got a Brooklyn backyard – summertime beat. lemonade and all. <\/p>\n

STEVE HARRINGTON & JAIME ROJAS of BROOKLYN STREET ART tell us this street mural is by – CLOWN SOLDIER, circa 2010.
\nread their excellent interview with CLOWN SOLDIER, and see more pix !!, here: ALL THE WORLD IS A CLOWN, BROOKLYN STREET ART\/BSA MARCH 3, 2011<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nincluding the garbage – which must be a regular gig – unless that’s a permanent street installation ?
\n(just joking)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nmoving down the street – the heat – turns up.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\ncheshire cat bird – NOT !!
\nbut ALICE In WONDERLAND, does come to mind. dig the beak, for sure.<\/p>\n

BROOKLYN STREET ART<\/a> tell us the bird head – is by GAIA.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nand so does – war !!
\nas in – SCI-FI FIGHTERS.
\n
\nBROOKLYN STREET ART<\/a> tells us the fighters – are by FREDDY SAM.<\/p>\n

p.s. what your roommate says about ‘PROMETHEUS’ the new summer movie of 2012 is true – it’s a real dud, as in lame. lame as lame can be. blockbuster, NOT !! way not. just some lazy scam to separate you – from your pocket dough.
\nat best. the harsh Egyptian-like ‘animal’ helmets, the humanoid space travelers wore, with their secret hinge at the jaw – were the best part. all downhill pretty much from the start, otherwise.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nstepping back – to take in the whole deal. well worth the effort. love those magic signs.
\nlove those magic stix.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nthe wall starts get to get more ‘realist’ as in ‘human’, as opposed to sci fi or animal \/ beast – as it goes on.
\nand what’s that . . . a dead black (magic) cat – on an art ‘field’ – underneath ?
\none thing’s for sure. there sure ain’t no . . . . hope or change. it’s a pretty jaded message, this time around.
\neven the PEACE, has tear drops.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\na shades of middle east – revolutionary-ist ? <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI guess so, because right next to him, lives PEACE and LOVE – and the rainbow melting . . . man.<\/p>\n

BROOKLYN STREET ART<\/a> attributes this part of the street mural – to ZE PALITO.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nfittingly, the street-run concludes with a smiling native. yo, Brooklyn.<\/p>\n
