INSIDE OUT PROJECT

 I so love The Inside Out Project ... especially this one in Park Slope Brooklyn .....
led by a resident, Dana Eskelson, who was concerned that the local shopkeepers were being forced out of business by the Atlantic Yards stadium project a block away, neighbors on Bergen Street became the first group in New York to join a global art project developed by a Paris street artist known as JR
  The images of 11 immigrant shopkeepers who work in the neighborhood were displayed on 36-by-48-inch black-and-white photographs cut horizontally and displayed on the steps of various brownstones.
