A mural grows on Avenue C



The owners of the recently unveiled 137 Avenue C brought in artist Zio Ziegler to create a mural on the new residential building's north-facing wall here at Ninth Street...

EVG reader Peter from 8th Street notes that work started this morning...





Here's more about Ziegler per his bio:

His work reflects the diverse influences of late medieval and quattrocento painting, aboriginal, African and naive art, and the European graffiti movement.

We'll check back later to see how the wall is shaping up...

    Is that really naive art or did they mean native?

    of course, of course
    the realtors and developers use this in their marketing
    a recent one is the Houston Mural, which is advertised on the development going up right next to it

    Now make the mural wrap around the entire building and the rents affordable.

    Define "affordable."
