His observation of the front room's potential depiction of a future Bushwick cityscene and the intensity of work that must have been required to make such a complex work showed the same appreciation that I felt upon first witnessing the mesmerizing diorama. The diorama immediately reminded me of early Calder, disassembling street art into concrete individual pieces. The graduation of disorder to beautiful order as the viewer moves from the front room to the middle and the rear rooms demonstrated how street art could indeed be highly desirable in a number of scenarios. As a result, I purchased pieces from both front and back rooms. Fantastic exhibit! I enjoyed Mr. Jauregui’s critique of the 2012 show.
