Electric Company

Posted by Bluelines

In Beacon, New York, this past weekend, a collective of graffiti artists turned a real-estate lemon into lemonade. With a twist.

Electric Windows brought together 24 street artists, including Lady Pink and Smith, and the exterior of a 19th-century factory building in order to create an inside-out art gallery.

Check out some of them in action below.

In addition to the countless empty cans of spray paint, there was live music and a gallery show.

If you missed the action or will be traveling in the area before June 7, be sure to check it out.

Do you like what you see? Why not reach out to your local street artists to turn a worn-down relic into a modern-day masterpiece?

That's a great project! An urban masterpiece. Is the building vacant? Does anyone know what the plans are for the inside of the building? Just curious.

Eek! I just posted about graffiti yesterday, too--- what a compelling project this is.

Thank you, Kendra!
