Up Close and Personal by Vandalog and M.A.N.Y.

Last week Vandalog's RJ Rushmore and Keith Schweitzer and Mike Glatzer of M.A.N.Y. took over an Upper West Side apartment for a few days between tenants and curated Up Close and Personal, an exhibition of small works by a very impressive set of street artists. The focused format made for many beautiful pieces and some completely unrecognizable work. The show closed yesterday, but here are photos of a tiny portion of the 36 pieces on view.
