Street Shots

Factory Fresh
The Old Dye Works



Part 1 of 2

We sat down with our friend and graffiti artist ******(we can't say name) recently and he mentioned a disused Dye Works that maybe of interest to the Collective. This factory first opened in the late 1870's and stayed open till 2007. They then started to demolish the site but ran out of funds, so piles of bricks, deep holes and debris litter this interesting yet macabre spot!

He also said there was a lot of cool graffs and skate spots kicking around the site along with some wicked buildings to explore. Well, you know us, we just couldn't say no, we had to go!
 
Check out what we saw below...

Keepin Up With... John John Jeese

One New, One Old


Keepin up with our Favorite Artists is always difficult but we try our best. 

John John has just finished a new piece (above). Not ignoring the older (below) works, of his individual and sometimes explicit style.


A view with John John (so good you have to say it twice)... HERE

Flesh Cut Fridays with Luci Westphal


Views of 5th Avenue and surrounding buildings from Salon de Ning, the rooftop bar above the Peninsula Hotel (at 55th Street). 

When I first dreamed of moving to New York City (at age 14) I always had the vision of living in a Penthouse with amazing views of skyscrapers, water towers and rooftop gardens. Instead I've always been living in Brooklyn on the ground floor with gardens for my cats and friends to hang out.

So it's always a special treat to enjoy an evening on a roof with a view - especially with interesting company and a Vodka Collins.

This week was an especially crappy one; with the death of our cat Jarmo, which is more heart-breaking than I had expected, and other bad changes, which will hopefully turn around again real soon. The only exception was that escapist Tuesday when I joined two celebrations in Manhattan - one which I'm not allowed to disclose yet and then the birthday of Maxx Klaxxon at Salon de Ning.

Throughout the week and today I've been collecting video for a bright and beautiful video. But in the end the dark, moody and foggy views of the nighttime city from an unusual perspective and distance seemed most fitting.

Next week for the 100th episode you can expect something more lively again. I think.
