Remembering the Twin Towers on East Fourth Street


The Fourth Arts Block is featuring the work of Lower East Side-based photographer Brian Rose ...

His panorama of various facades of the former Twin Towers is mounted on the ArtUp Scaffolding Bridge at the 70 East 4th Street Cultural Center. And FAB Café is hosting a concurrent exhibition of Rose’s work at 75 E. 4th St. The opening event is tonight from 7-9.



Meanwhile, Rose tells us that he is going forward with publishing "Time and Space on the Lower East Side," working with a small publisher. He just launched a Kickstarter campaign to facilitate funding. The project page is here.

We first wrote about the project in July 2010. You can find that post here. Bonus photo of his from the 1980s...
