Thanks to Saul Nofizaro aka Mr Saul Metnick, of blandscape.org Photographer extraordinaire for putting me onto this NY times story…
Mr. Felisbret, 46, chose the long way. Not that he is unused to fence-jumping. In the 1970s, that was one of his skills as a budding graffiti writer who stole into subway yards. Using the nom de graf DEAL, he was part of the Crazy Inside Artists, a legendary crew from East New York, Brooklyn. This time, though, instead of wielding a spray can, he pulled out a camera and took a quick snapshot of the artwork, done with the landlord’s permission.

Three Amigos
Monday, January 4th, 2010Over the recent holidays I got to see part of the 3 amigos, for the umpteenth time, on the boob-tube. I am a sucker for stupid comedy’s from the genius to the mildly retarded and decidedly low brow. The real world is serious enough not to spend two hours watching the likes of Sophies choice or some such ’serious’ work and want to hang yourself after wards. Im sure they are well written and properly dramatic is character arcs and plots and subplots but ill take light and fluffy when i decide to relax, for the most part. thanks…
