NEXT WEEK: Dan Witz Book Signing & Party
Filed under: 11211, 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Street Art, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn
Here’s the deal: as a general rule I do not post events until the week of said event. In this case I am making an exception. Why, you ask? Because I am damned excited, that’s why! Next Wednesday, June 30th, from 7:00 – 10:00 p.m. Spoonbill and Sugartown Books will be hosting a book signing party for our very own Dan Witz (whose handiwork can be seen at left). Refreshments are promised as is the opportunity to purchase a copy of his new book, In Plain View: 30 Years of Art Work Illegal or Otherwise; and have it signed by the man himself.
Check it out!

Found On Scarano’s Shoebox: Toddler?
Filed under: 11222, Bloomblight, East Williamsburg, East Williamsburg Brooklyn, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Street Art
As many of you have probably observed as you have read this blog yours truly has a “thing” for derelict construction sites (such as the above eyesore which comes courtesy of north Brooklyn’s good friend, Robert Scarano). I also spend a great deal of time documenting street art. So you can imagine my delight when I discovered the following.
A work by Dan Witz on said rusting hulk. I wasn’t the only one who was tickled by this toddler. A woman who had just exited the BQE and was waiting at the light shouted:
The kid’s cute, isn’t he?
To wit I replied:
Yes, he is. That’s about the best thing that can be said for this building.
She laughed and we parted ways.
Perhaps this is the beginning of a trend, e.g,; derelict sites replacing milk cartons as awareness raisers for lost children? I suppose only time will tell.
