Some New York neighborhoods like Brooklyn to Jefferson Street, Wyckoff Avenue
and St. Nicholas Avenue are real museums to open skies.
Masterpieces are spread over the walls and urban constructions
and explode the barriers to give through the urban “revisited” a colored tint
to the sometimes drab existence in these places.
It touches on the essence of art, a form of Art Brut who speaks out felted galleries
and worldly openings.
Artistic expression can finally release
mercantile constraints that impose a style, a trend or a fad.
Poor neighborhoods away from Manhattan can relive
and back colors with a strong identity.
The walls, doors, fences, poles, pipes, windows, shutters, etc.
serve as supports with their textures bricks,
corrugated iron, metal, door frames and walls disappear to open the horizon
to freedom, space and dream.
The authors of these urban paintings gathered
under the “Bushwick Collective” in New York.
