Images of the Week: 08.05.12

New York was smacked upside the head this week by fresh work by Faith 47, DAL East, and ROA. BSA was lucky enough to catch all three, even as photographer Jaime Rojo was bouncing from spot to spot like a silver pinball to see as much of the action as possible. Here in the thick of summer, there was a lot more happening on other walls through the week too and we’ll be showing those images to you in the coming days.

Today we’re just going to bring you some of the live action, first with ROA, fresh from his controversial double bear portrait in Rochester for the Wall/Therapy project, which apparently alarmed some unfulfilled observers because it reminded them of a “69” position. Either a) they never experienced this personally or b) it’s been a really long time or c) things are kind of slow going in Rochacha right now, but clearly they may want to do some research before growling about these two sleepy bears. God only knows WHAT they would say about ROA’s new piece with three animals stacked on top of each other. Clearly what this Belgian hellion has created is an orgiastic scene of furry debauchery!
