BSA Images Of The Week: 10.06.24
Welcome to BSA Images of the Week!
Who’s in town this week? New York is no stranger to visiting artists, but the thrill never fades. Right now, we’ve got Kiwi sensation Owen Dippie here to blow minds with his latest piece, plus the wild Italian trio Canemorto. These graffiti-street artist-fishermen from Brianza, up North of Milan, are kicking off a three-day performance at Matta. Come by to see what is the catch of the day, and they might be speaking their own brand of “Canemortish”. The three-day event will be fresh Thursday through Saturday – let’s see what they’ve reeled in for you!
The pressure is high otherwise on the street with one month until the Presidential election, the devastation of Hurricane Helene killing 200+ and still crippling some parts of the southeast, our Mayor Eric Adams appears to be hanging on to his seat for the moment, people are ramping up the rhetoric against immigrants, a soaring stock market and a report by the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released in September reveals why, for most Americans, the economy is broken. And we all know that it has happened steadily no matter which party was in the White House.
Tensions are sky-high on the streets with just a month left until the Presidential election. Hurricane Helene has already left over 200 dead and parts of the Southeast struggling to recover. Mayor Eric Adams seems to be clinging to his seat for now, while the anti-immigrant rhetoric is getting louder while a program 35 new billboards are welcoming. Meanwhile, the stock market’s flying high, but a recent report from the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) lays bare the harsh truth: for most Americans, the economy is broken. And let’s be real—it’s been that way for years, no matter which party’s been calling the shots.
And here we go boldly into the streets of New York to find new stuff from: Joe Iurato, Veng RWK, Jason Naylor, Stikki Peaches, Muebon, CP Won, Never Satisfied, Mena Ceresa, and Brozilla.
