Nice to see that our yes (we are open) sign has had such pervasive influence in the area - after 6 years, the yes has travelled! These two murals are done along the 80ft side walls of the tunnel (under the BQE) next to the York St F station.
as it was for 7 years - now no longer out front. spring is now open by appointment.
Sagmeister and Walsh collaborated with renowned Japanese illustrator Yuko Shimiza and created two large typographic messages to sit on the facing walls - both hand painted by Coby Kennedy.

Paul Cocksedge's CAPTURE SHOW at Friedman Benda 515 W26th St
September 12th - October 12th
Poised has the grace and suppleness of paper. Rolling a sheet of steel like this soon reaches a point just short of where it could not exist as a table; it would simply topple. This led to an intensive process of calculation regarding gravity, mass and equilibrium.
Poised achieves an improbable degree of balance and precision: one millimeter’s horizontal deviance in any direction and the balance would be lost.
