Just in,  D*Face has put the final touches on a new mural located in New York’s Lower East Side. Along with his new body of paintings, the outdoor piece features a dense mash-up of pop imagery, throwing recognizable corporate mascots, logos and comic characters into hyper abstraction. The wall coincides with Ludovico Aversion Therapy / All Your Dreams Belong To Us, the London based street artist’s eagerly awaited second solo exhibit with Jonathan LeVine. The gallery will announce the mural’s exact location this coming Monday. Until, then, enjoy our exclusive pics and happy hunting!

We’ve also spotted these proper advertisements for the show around town.

With his ambitious Love Letter to his home-town of Philadelphia, Steve Powers once again proves mastery of the art of giving back while getting over. Early last month we reported that production on the 50-wall Market Street mural was already underway, in partnership with the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program, funded by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage’s Philadelphia Exhibitions Initiative.

Now, with several more locations painted and more project details to announce, Power’s updates us via a new website. In addition to the multi-site mural, Love Letter will include a documentary film with scripted elements, a sign school and shop that will provide training for local youth and free signage for businesses along Market Street, and two books - a small paperback that will be given free to area businesses for them to sell to visitors, and a hardcover book that will document not only the artwork, surrounding neighborhood and inspirations for the project.

Keep track of Love Letter’s progress on the project’s site or follow the Twitter feed here. ( Via the art collectors » Giving Back While Getting Over :: More on Steve Powers’ Love Letter to Philly)

What we love about Specter’s work is that all of his pieces are hand painted and site specific. The work above, done in Brooklyn, is from a new project about consumption and waste called “Discarded” (via Wooster Collective: Fresh Stuff From Specter: “Discarded”)
