West 24th Street
Are you the sort of person who enjoys going to art galleries but wished they had more gravel in them? Then this temporary exhibition space is for you. Housing just two paintings but also featuring a bench, some carpet and complimentary refreshments. Opens today through Sunday 11am til midnight.
People ask why I want to have an exhibition in the streets, but have you been to an art gallery recently? They're full.
Contrary to reports on fox news this space was kindly donated for free by the owner.

No turn unstoned. A 1/36 scale replica of the great Sphinx of Giza made from smashed cinderblocks. You're advised not to drink the replica Arab spring water.
