Want to know where art is headed next? Here are the ones to watch.
The flagship of this sprawling art supply store. They’ve been selling art supplies for over 20 years. This is where the best graffiti artists come to get their cans.
Named after its Hong Kong-born owner and designer Szeki, this is the store for inclusive, highly-wearable clothing that’ll see you through the NYC seasons. Good pants, big jackets, clever detailing.
Grab a sunny spot under the awning for Argentinian steaks and family-style dishes. A crowd pleaser, where you can actually hear your dining buddy speak.
Luminous, fresh paintings by (mostly) heritage artists on the tree-lined streets of Losaido. Plus a black-lit basement and meditation space by Kenny Scharf.
