The artists participating in Centre-fuge Cycle 12 completed their work this past weekend on the rotating outdoor gallery/construction trailer here along East First Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue.
Artists represented in Cycle 12 are Amar Stewart, BK, Col Wallnuts, Michael DeNicola, Numb-DSI and Vernon O’Meally.
The most recent recreation of Mike Hamm's work is permanently installed on the eastern face of the trailer.
Hamm, who worked at Lancelotti Housewares and Alphabets on Avenue A, was one of Centre-Fuge's creators. He died on Jan. 7, 2012, after doctors discovered an undiagnosed condition called arteriovenous malformation that caused a series of brain hemorrhages. He was 29. (Read more about Mike here.)
Also, as you may have read yesterday (the story made the rounds on the Internet), Cycle 12 includes Michael DeNicola's tribute to the late Philip Seymour Hoffman.
And an in-progress look from Saturday morning…
This western-facing side of the trailer was previously home to Danielle Mastrion's tribute to MCA of the Beasties Boys in the spring of 2012…

The Philip Seymour Hoffman looks more like Jonathan Frakes from Star Trek:TNG.
I would have never guessed that was "PSH"
