PANTHEON: A History of NYC Street And Graffiti Art On Display At Chashama

Last week, an exhibition opened at Chashama 20 West 53rd St (across from the Museum of Modern Art) called PANTHEON. The window exhibition focuses on the history of NYC street and graffiti art from the late 1970s and featuring 35 graffiti writers and street artists including Abe Lincoln Jr., Faro, Stikman, Ellis Gallagher, Adam VOID, UFO and many others. The former Donnell Library becomes a repository of visual information on the growing world-wide phenomenon of street art. This exhibition will present an art historical timeline that is a part of New York City’s unique legacy.
