Closing Bell: A Mural Graces Front Street

As Dumbo NYC pointed out a few days ago, DOT and the Dumbo BID installed a new mural on Front Street. It’s called Intersection, and the Dumbo BID has this to say it: “‘Intersection’, a site-specific piece that is part of the pARTners track of NYC DOT’s Urban Art Program, shows lines of seven colors meeting the corrugated vertical lines of the fence behind it. The concept mimics and bends the lines of the fence creating a colorful graphic that symbolizes the constant movement of DUMBO. The design is an abstracted interpretation of intersecting train tracks and the familiar New York City subway map and also references the cross-sections of cultures and people who view it.” It was designed by Brooklyn artists and is the second mural in this specific location.
