Some cool Street art on 6th Ave

One of the things i like about NYC is when you go out for walks around the city, you will always find some cool art on display along the streets of NYC

Let me take you on a little walk along 6th Ave and show you some art I found last week.

Paparazzi Dogman and Paparazzi Rabbitgirl in front of 1221 Avenue of the Americas.

These are by artists Gillie and Marc Schattner. The husband-and-wife team has worked side-by-side for nearly three decades and are best known for their autobiographical characters, Rabbitgirl and Dogman as well as producing sculptures of rhinos and dogs which have attracted media interest.

These are different from the Paparrazi Dogs which were in NYC recently

The Paparazzi dogs were in Brooklyn then at at the Ruth Wittenberg Triangle at the intersection of Greenwich Avenue, Avenue of the Americas, and Eighth Street, back in March this year . Created by Australian husband and wife team of Gillie and Marc, The Paparazzi Dogs have cameras aimed at the doors to C. O. Bigelow Apothecaries, the oldest surviving apothecary in the United States.

This blue man, at Sixth Avenue and West 53rd Street in Manhattan, is called Jean-Marc, named for the artist Jean-Marc Bustamante The creator of the statue is Xavier Veilhan and let me finish off with one for fans of the Simpsons

the bronze Bart Simpson sculpture on 6th Avenue in front of the News Corp. building. Depicting Bart as a superhero with cape, “Bartman” was made by the actress Nancy Cartwright who voices Bart himself on the hit cartoon. Originally made in clay, out of a suggestion by Cartwright’s son, Bartman in its bronze cast form has a twin at the University of Southern California. Both were installed as a celebration of The Simpsons’ 25th Anniversary.

Stay Cool and Steem on
