Ellen Harvey New York Beautification Project by Other Ellen Harvey
Brand: Gregory Miller & Company
Product Description
Ellen Harveys inspiring guerilla art project feels fresher and more relevant than ever Between 1999 and 2001 small oldfashioned landscapes painstakingly executed in oil started to appear on graffiti sites across New York City. The paintings were the work of the wellknown Brooklynbased artist Ellen Harvey born 1967. Documented in this reprint of the soldout first edition are both the works themselves and Harveys diaristic accounts of painting illegally throughout the city. The narrative of her beautification project is both provocative and hilarious. It touches on such issues as who is allowed to make art in our society and what distinguishes art from graffiti while never losing touch with the frequently comical reality of creating a contemporary art project on the streets of New York. show more
