Modesto Flores Garden

10th St and Lexington Avenue, New York — 104th St and Lexington Avenue, New York

The Modesto Flores Garden on Lexington Avenue next to the East Harlem Cafe was the next stop on our Jane’s Walk. Portraits of Frida Kahlo and her sister-in-arts, Julia de Burgos in the background.

La Vida en el Barrio

Next stop on our Jane’s Walk tour of East Harlem murals. This mural had a name, but I’ve forgotten what it was. Brick re-pointing has remove parts of the mural but there are hopes to restore it.

Bride by Bruscky

Detail from “Bride,” 2006 by Paulo Bruscky. Plexiglass and typewriter rolls.

This is the side view of 2 artworks that are made up of items embedded in layers of lucite (perspex), creating a an interesting 3-dimensional effect when viewed from the front. I can’t remember the name of the artist or the gallery and couldn’t recover them on the web.
