Workers were seen prepping the Deitch Wall on the corner of Houston and Bowery on Sunday afternoon, getting it ready for the uninspired and lazy artwork
of Shepard Fairey, who will be using the wall as his canvas in promotion of his show at
Deitch Gallery in May. Fairey might be best known for creating work that
is often shown to be copies of
other artists' images.
The smooth white wall seen above is newly constructed, and surrounds and preserves the original stone Deitch Wall behind it. That wall recently displayed the
brightly colored and elaborate mural of Brazilian twins
Os Gêmeos, work which still exists hidden behind,
accessible by a door.
