Some found art for your pleasure
Aug. 15th, 2005 05:00 pmA few days ago I took some photos of these inadvertent works of abstract expressionism in the 190th St. subway station. (I hope you can see them. I haven't really figured out how to use flickr.)
These rectangular spaces are usually pasted over with ad sales or subway maps, but I guess selling ads that far uptown is tough - for months now the spaces have been vacant. Or almost vacant, I should say - when the last round of ads was torn down, they left behind the strata of ads past, along with layers of paint and dried adhesive. I think it looks kind of neat. So there you are.
(I'm sorry the photos are kind of crappy - I should have used the flash, I guess? I don't know.)
