Undoubtedly one of the most sought-after pieces of artistic real estate in New York City, the Bowery & Houston wall has been transformed courtesy of Aiko Nakagawa. Following in the footsteps and handprints of such artistic heavyweights as RETNA, Kenny Scharf, Barry McGee, Shepard Fairey, Os Gemeos, JR and Keith Haring, the latest work features the first ever “female” presence courtesy Nakagawa’s “Lady Aiko” character. Painted with distinct femininity that still commands attention on the busy street corner, the colorful and nuanced affair is certainly at home on a wall where fine masterworks have become commonplace.
