Street artist Billi Kid curates the first major Gawker Artists exhibition on the rooftop of the gossip-media empire's swank digs in Nolita. Joining forces with author-and-photographer team James and Karla Murray, Kid invited 28 street and graffiti artists to transform blown-up and pasted images from the Murrays' latest book, Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York. The result is a 60% scale street-scape depicting documentary evidence of the city's past, and ephemeral evidence of its future.
