New in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn: RAE, Gaia and Lelo

June 21st, 2012 | By | No Comments »

We don’t visit Bedford-Stuyvesant as often as we should, as its walls are among the most interesting – and least documented – around town.  But we did get over there earlier this week, where we discovered new work by RAE and Gaia and found a huge mural — overlooking a community garden — by Lelo, a street artist from Rio de Janeiro.

We love the way RAE has integrated the tree into his most recent public piece

We don’t get to the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn often enough . But we did today, and the rooftops and graffiti walls will definitely have us coming back for more:
