You may recall the images on the new banners posted around Roosevelt Island from a showcase earlier this year of the original artwork in the Rivercross Window Case (see earlier Nov. 6th post). They include images of the Tram, the Lighthouse, Good Shepherd Community Center, among others.
What you may not know is the artist's name Tony Vita. He was profiled in the Main Street WIRE some years back and you probably have walked by him on Main Street or sat by him at Trellis.

These poster images of Roosevelt are wonderful. It makes you feel that our little island is the setting for some fantastic literature.
ReplyDeleteI hope the images are reproduced for sale as cards etc.
