Description
A ghoulish figure stares you down in a large grafitti arts piece titled 'Morning Breath' at 5 Pointz in Queens, New York City.
5 Pointz: The Institute of Higher Burnin' or the 5Pointz Aerosol Art Center, Inc. (45-46 Davis Street, Queens, New York) is an American outdoor art exhibit space in Long Island City, New York. Considered to be the world's premiere "graffiti mecca", where aerosol artists from around the globe paint colorful pieces on the walls of a 200,000-square-foot (19,000 m2) factory building.
The complex is privately owned by Long Island developer Jerry Wolkoff, and houses the Crane Street Studios. 5 Pointz is tentatively scheduled to be torn down in 2013 to make way for a $400 million residential project. The residential project will set aside a large amount of space exclusively for graffiti. (Information obtained from Wikipedia)
