Fab 5 Freddy, Futura 2000 & Basquiat. 1 Wall.
December 20th, 2007
A piece of New York art history popped up in a mid-conversion loft apt in SoHo a few months ago. A wall in one of its rooms features work from three legends of Hip Hop and Graffiti culture from the 80’s: Fab 5 Freddy, Futura 2000 & Jean-Michel Basquiat. Everyday, construction efforts in NY are knocking down or refurbishing old buildings and turning them into upscale apartment buildings, condos, lofts, etc. Who knows what may have already been lost. Luckily this piece is being conserved and will be shown at SoHo building’s Gallery 151, “The Wild Style Exhibit” until February 15th. Read the full story at Newsday.
