11 Spring Street Massive Photo Paste-Up
Large photo paste-up on the first floor, inside the building at 11 Spring Street in Nolita, New York City. This guy looks like a middle aged bad-ass mafioso type. This picture, like all the images of art work created and displayed inside the Building at 11 Spring Street, was taken during the two-day exhibition there in December 2006.

The End of Street Art at 11 Spring St., SoHo, NYC
The New York Times has run a story about the final days of street art at the 11 Srping Street building in downtown New York City. During the past four weeks or so the new owners of the building, who will turn the building into a condos, have allowed artists to legally put up art work on the inside of the building, as well as the outside, in an effort to stage one last exhibition this weekend before construction crews start their work. Much of the art on the interior will be concealed behind drywall after this weekend. The building is open to the public Dec. 15 - 17, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM. (Tip of the hat to Jess E. for the tip.)

Here's a clip showing "Cheeky" and crew sign a fresh piece at the building at 11 Spring St. (a.k.a. the "candle building") in Nolita, New York City. The new piece was put up on Tuesday (Nov. 14, 2006) evening a couple of days after several of downtown New York's most active street artists put up a ton of new work on the building. The video shows the breadth of these artists fresh work on the Elizabeth St. side of the buidling.

No. 4: Street Art All-Stars Stage Massive Attack at 11 Spring Street, NYC
And in this image is another part of the strip of street art works (including pieces by Faile, Bast, and Cheeky) that stretch along the Elizabeth Street side of the building at 11 Spring Street in downtown Manhattan, New York City. The work by Faile is epic in scale, cut along the building arches.
BACKGROUND
At some time this past weekend, several of the best-known and most active street artists in downtown New York City put up fresh work, some of it in the form of massive wheat-paste-ups, on the building at 11 Spring Street in the Nolita neighbrhood of downtown Manhattan. Among the works are pieces by WK Interact, Faile, Bast and Cheeky. Within the past two weeks new work by Flower Guy, Swoon, Above and The London Police has also gone up on the structure.
The building has been empty and seemingly uninhabited for years despite changes of ownership in recent years. For many years, each window of the tenement-style structure had a light in the form of a fake candle, hence the informal name "candle building." Eleven Spring St. has been a bit of mystery until recently when the property was purchased for residential use. What appeared to be early renovation work began last week.
Some fear that the redevelopment of the building for actual habitation might spell the end of street art at the site. Over the years, 11 Spring has become a landmark of street art and a canvas and mecca for artists and lovers of street art. This massive attack of new work on the building almost seems like a way of saying "street art is here to stay no mattter what the future of the building."

Some fear that the redevelopment of the building for actual habitation might spell the end of street art at the site. Over the years, 11 Spring has become a landmark of street art and a canvas and mecca for artists and lovers of street art. This massive attack of new work on the building almost seems like a way of saying "street art is here to stay no mattter what the future of the building."

No. 2: Street Art All-Stars Stage Massive Attack at 11 Spring Street, NYC
The picture above shows the northern end of the epic new work by Faile that stretches along the Elizabeth Street side of the building at 11 Spring Street, in Nolita, NYC.
BACKGROUND
At some time this past weekend, several of the best-known and most active street artists in downtown New York City put up fresh work, some of it in the form of massive wheat-paste-ups, on the building at 11 Spring Street in the Nolita neighbrhood of downtown Manhattan. Among the works are pieces by WK Interact, Faile, Bast and Cheeky. Within the past two weeks new work by Flower Guy, Swoon, Above and The London Police has also gone up on the structure.
The building has been empty and seemingly uninhabited for years despite changes of ownership in recent years. For many years, each window of the tenement-style structure had a light in the form of a fake candle, hence the informal name "candle building." Eleven Spring St. has been a bit of mystery until recently when the property was purchased for residential use. What appeared to be early renovation work began last week.

The Story of the Mysterious Street Art-Covered Building at 11 Spring St., New York City
There's a place we've referenced many times here on Global Graphica, a place that is important in New York street art, so muhc so that is has become an internationally known icon and destination for artists. That place is the building at 11 Spring Street in downtown New York City. However, the building has been a mystery to most people, even long-time neighbors in the Nolita neighborhood where the stucture is stands. The building's exterior is a world-famous spot for street art and graffiti, which the owners in recent decades have left alone. The New York Times recently ran an article about the building. The building was recently bought from Lachlan Murdoch, the son of Rupert of Fox News fame. As a result a lot of information about 11 Spring St. has suddenly become available. Many pictures of street art and graf at 11 Spring St. are available for viewing on this site. Here's part of the list.

Here's the contextual view of the massive bulldog wheat-paste artwork on the Elizabeth Street side of the building at 11 Spring Street in downtown New York City. Other, much smaller versions of the bulldog paste-up can be found around lower Manhattan, but this new one in Nolita, near SoHo, is the biggest we've seen yet.
