Just over a year ago, I posted some pictures of the art work hanging on a fence along Craven Road.
Some of it is still there, especially some cat pictures like this one:
below: Quite a few little planters have been mounted on the wall. Because it’s now cold November, most of the plants have died. These are two exceptions.
below: Some of the things that are now on the fence. Because there are no houses on the west side of the street, the fence can serve as a gallery wall.
below: A close up picture of the “Celebrating 100 years” sign as well as the picture of Queen Elizabeth I, engraved by Crispin van de Passe the Elder, after a drawing by Isaac Oliver.
below: Andy Warhol’s Marilyn Munroe beside many shoes in twos, knee pads and a walking cast.
below: Mirror, mirror on the wall… Bird pictures to the left and trees and sticks to the right.
Scattered among them are a few glow in the dark stars.
below: Artfully arrange artifacts… mask, hockey stick, dog pictures, toy helicopter….
below: A woman with three wolves, a young boy and dragonflies listening to your heart.
below: A composition of found items. A still life made of remnants of the past.
below: And lastly, a couple of pictures of some of the original paintings.
Ah, classic Craven. A city oddity.
