Solving the woman with the jellyfish mystery that wasn't really all that mysterious after all



Several people have been asking what that mural/ad/banner thing is at the southeast corner of Fourth Avenue and East 10th Street.

Turns out the answer is right up Fourth Avenue … It's a public art installation that coincides with an exhibit from model-photographer Amber Arbucci in the former Dryden Gallery Space at 129 Fourth Ave. near East 13th Street…



There are nude self-portraits … showing Arbucci swimming with five million jellyfish …



Here's an interview with Arbucci about what this is all about …

The exhibit opened yesterday … not sure how long it will be here…

Watch the TV commercial shot in Tompkins Square Park that MTV won't air

Back in November, we posted some photos of Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Kate Upton shooting a Zoo York commercial in Tompkins Square Park... like this one, had we actually taken it...


Anyway, apparently there's this big fake controversy about the ad. According to various reports (like in the Daily News), MTV and Adult Swim have refused to air the commercial.

Something about "bleeped profanity" and, perhaps, some "erect nipple."

Anyway, see for yourself in this — ohhhhh! AHHHHHHHHH! — uncensored version!

Anyway! Woo! Snow! Woo! A model! Woo!







And the summer continues to slip away...

"Is this the new East Village?"

The Daily News checks in with an update on Village Green, the eco-friendly condo on 11th Street and its developer, Michael Namer.

What we learned from the article:

[A]ll but two of 36 units are sold in the building that has a green roof, uses Daikin HVAC systems instead of a boiler, has a wellness center, recaptures rainwater, and counts several buyers as bona fide supermodels.

Is this the new East Village? Maybe, maybe not, but Namer and company proved that good product marketed to the right audience will find buyers, even with prices averaging $1.1 million.


And a great headline for Joe Coscarelli's post on this at Runnin' Scared:

The East Village is Finally Safe For Yuppies, Parties and the Environment

(One item I didn't note on the Daily News piece: "[Namer] throws huge parties. One is so big they have to almost close the street.")

A model day on Avenue A

Following up on that previous post about models invading Key Food on Avenue A... apparently the model crew has been camped out here between Sixth Street and Seventh Street....



...Atlas Productions was working on a photo shoot for Sisley, a clothing line for skinny people and people who want to think they're skinny...



Anyway, quite an itinerary! Aside from posing on the street (where are the photos?!), the models took to Key Food, Odessa and 7B for the shoots...




...and, for some reason, catering was on hand. Probably for the crew.

Block party




There was some kind of mini photo shoot happening on Second Avenue at Sixth Street in front of Block Drugs a little bit a go... For some reason, an attractive young woman in jean shorts jumping around in front of a photographer made people slow down and watch...

Village Green's project runway

On Sunday, I thought there was a big Open House or something at Village Green, 11th Street's very first "eco-indulgent" condo. Seemed as if management busted out the velvet ropes to make potential condogoers feel as if they were entering a self-important hookah bar or something. Just needed a few bouncers with clipboards and headsets...



Then yesterday, there were huge lines to get in! Is there really a demand to get those remaining units?





Seriously. What? I made my way up front... and... It's Fashion Week! Uh, at least Eco Fashion Week!...



Guess it makes sense to hold this show here, in a building billed as environmentally friendly with LEED-Gold certification ...

There was a guy with a clipboard and headset... and only letting in people on some list. I'm never on any lists. So, uh, I kind of snuck in...

Anyway, roughly where the gym will be on the ground floor to the west of the lobby ...



A runway was set up for designer Joann Berman...and away it went, with eco-friendly designs made with organic materials and recyclables and what not...










That's Berman in the sunglasses below after the show...



In the end, though, I was not as successful sneaking up to see the $2 million penthouse...
