Gap "Art of Blue" Global Art Project featuring art by Roman Grandinetti and CNNCTD+ on Kenmere St., 8/23
Numbers rule our lives. From birthdays to bills, life revolves around how much, how little, what date and what time. Surrounded by an invisible pool of whole, partial and fractional numbers, Roman Grandinetti and CNNCTD+ blankets the outside of 19 Kenmere St. (at Bowery) with bold white western numerals. Referring to the design, Grandinetti expresses, "I injected how downtown is becoming a tad more organized and a little more fine-tuned with numbers. Saint Laurent is now downtown. Balenciaga is now downtown. The newcomers are kind of making it streamlined.[source]" Amidst the stream of NYC phone numbers recognizing Grandinetti's favorite downtown digs, can you find where Gap's signature '1969' is hidden?
