That time Banksy took over New York City (revisited)

Banksy took over New York City in 2013. Here are my images of the crowds gathered to see the work.

Another strange benefit of working at Ogilvy was the random proximity to this important piece of modern art history. Banksy took over NYC for 31 days in NYC, with a piece of his artwork appearing each day in new, different locations, without warning. Dudes were charging admission at some spots. Covering the work with cardboard until someone paid them. Aahhh. New York.

Those were words. These are images.

Murals with Marcel | The Art Plug | E11even Vodka | March 10, 2023

A day documenting the creation of a mural for Miami & E11even Vodka, with Marcel Katz & team.

Marcel Katz, a.k.a The Art Plug, asked me to document the final touches of a mural outside E11EVEN Miami for E11EVEN Vodka. The team included Marcel, Jeronimo, & Jonathan. It was a beautiful day, and a perfect day for shooting these three talented artists at work.
