Looking Up

The other day I walked home from midtown Manhattan and I noticed that there was a lot of new and interesting architecture going up around the city and it’s outer boroughs. It’s very strange that we are supposed to be in such a shitty financial state, when all of these interesting places are just coming onto the market. If anyone has a lot of empty office/residential space in one of these beauties, I here by volunteer to act as your artist in residence and turn the space into a fun gallery/installation/performance space. Seems like a good way to get people to see your new facility. Contact me. We’ll do lunch. This is a new residential tower near insurance row in the twenties and below that is the side of the new Cooper Union building (which given it’s location next to a tower that clearly borrows a glass idea from the Chelsea AIC building) looks like a sort of knock off Frank Gehry building… in the manner of Canal Street designer hand bags… but you know it still looks pretty good and goes with your shoes, or whatever.
