If we're being honest here (and aren't we always?)Lord & Taylor is a department store that's had some difficulty adapting to the times. The assortment, merchandising and advertising are all a bit dated and speak to much older demographic than my own. That said, the store is taking some steps to update their image with a new “Art in Action” exhibition, on view from July 9th - July 27th in the store’s legendary Fifth Avenue windows.
"Art in Action" is the first exhibition to feature artwork created exclusively for L&T by TATS CRU, a Bronx-based group of pro graffiti artists (yes, in nyc, we have professional graffiti artists.) The murals displayed in the windows depict a dazzling mix of graffiti forms and fashion imagery in a variety of bright and brilliant colors.
I checked the windows out this weekend and they were quite cool. If you're in the neighborhood - 5th Ave and 40th street -be sure to take a look. If you've seen them already, leave a comment below and let us know what you thought.
