Gallery Mondays: Linda Ganjian’s ‘Home Sweet Home’
I didn’t get to see the station art at 111 Street on the A train line until last month. I had honestly forgotten that the station got renovated in general, so it was nice walking onto the platform and seeing Linda Ganjian’s Home Sweet Home stainless steel cut outs on the panels. What I really love…

Fan Art Fridays: That Dangerous Woman Ariana Grande
Do you know that “Dangerous Woman”? The “Greedy” one that makes “Bad Decisions”? Well her album came out today. (Now I guess you can tell which tracks from Ariana Grande’s Dangerous Woman are my faves!) I’ve been waiting for today since the beginning of spring because I was so impressed with the singles “Dangerous Woman” and “Let Me…

Gallery Mondays: Roberto Fabelo’s ‘Éxtasis de la Carne Huidiza’
I don’t have allergies, but a lot of people I live and work around do, so some mornings I wake up feeling like this woman in Roberto Fabelo’s ‘Éxtasis de la Carne Huidiza’—minus the pigs on her face. No swine flu is catching this chick a week before her birthday. I saw this painting in…

Gallery Mondays: ‘Suggestion Mark’ by Jennifer Grimyser
Last week, I stumbles upon a field of hands on display at chashama 266 in Midtown. Called Suggestion Mark, the exhibit is by Jennifer Grimyser. She explores the concept of verbal and non-verbal communication using hands that appear to be making signs similar to those in American Sign Language. I never learned to sign because I…

Gallery Mondays: ‘Olsen Twins Hiding From the Paparazzi’
On Friday I went to check out the Olsen Twins Hiding from the Paparazzi exhibit by THNK1994. It was awesome. So awesome I wished I had gone to the opening night. The paintings were done by Laura Collins, who can’t tell the Olsen twins apart, especially when they’re covering their faces from the paparazzi, so none…

Gallery Mondays: URBANIMAL Graffiti on B.K. Express Truck
A few months ago I spotted this B.K. Express Truck sitting in the parked lane on 8th Avenue in Midtown with URBANIMAL graffiti all over it. The truck has a Michigan address on it, which is enough to pique my curiosity. The URBANIMAL graffiti was just an added bonus. The first thing I noticed were…

Gallery Mondays: #CreekLove
It’s finally back to feeling like spring again, and Earth Day is coming up, so I’ve decided to feature this artwork I found while visiting Austin, Texas in March. The piece was created by Lucas Aoki as part of SPRATX‘s #CreekLove Storm Drain Project to promote keeping the creeks and lakes of Austin free from pollution.…
