Street Art Street Life: From the 1950s to Now


NYT -"If I say 'street life,' and you think noise-lights-action, you may find 'Street Art Street Life: From the 1950s to Now' at the Bronx Museum of the Arts a puzzling show. There is noise — a pop song, the clatter of metal across concrete — but not much. Lights and action are confined to videos, several of them bleached, grainy, way predigital. The bulk of the work is photography. Some of the pictures are snazzy: Jamel Shabazz’s color portraits of sidewalk supermodels from the 1980s; photomontages by Fatimah Tuggar that transport New York to Africa and vice versa."
