Okay, so I'm going to cheat a little bit. I didn't really do anything blogworthy today--just some laundry, reading, and catching up with friends over the phone, so I'm going to post some pictures that I took earlier in the week. The 14th St. subway station has these cute little bronze sculptures all over the place, which Brandon and I thought must have some sort of social commentary attached to them, because many of the sculptures involve moneybags and seem to represent "The Man" (so to speak) holding down the little guy. Upon a little bit of research I found that these sculptures are part of a public art project called "Life Underground." A couple of pictures that I took the other day are below, but you can see a more comprehensive collection of pictures at the artist's own website: http://www.tomostudio.com/exhibitions_subway.html
The entire collection can be seen here: http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/artwork_show?21
