As the Bushwick art scene rocks on with the summer tide, the current set suffuses beyond the industrial landscape and joins our neighbors across the H2O to the east. The Lower East side, vibing from the edge of the East Village to the corners of Chinatown, is a neighborhood we all know for its vibrant culture and living history. Lately this area has been riding the Bushwick waves with some of the neighborhood crew, showcasing new works at several of the galleries. See some Bushwick-inspired photography at Con Artist Gallery’s upcoming opening and catch up with Julie Torres’ current curatorial effort over at the former Pocket Utopia Space.
