More Model RR Slums
October 25th, 2007
Regular visitors to this blog may remember the massively popular 2005
post on Peter Feigenbaum’s Trainset Ghetto project. Peter, who is a
23 year-old Brooklyn-based artist, musician, illustrator and
architectural designer, has returned with a new set of photographs
taken this past May in preparation for a group show at Gallery Aferro
(Link) in Newark, which is up until November 17.
The multimedia/photography project revolves around a miniature
facsimile of burned-out, grafitti covered 1980s New York City, which
Peter built from model railroad supplies. It touches on themes of
architectural vernacular, teenage suburban fantasy/urban poseurdom,
and uncanny juxtapositions of scale and era.
Additional photos are available at Peter’s website.
