ART: Conartists Art Collective

Brian Shevlin
Picking my way down a cramped stair to a basement, a whole world of original contemporary art, vintage fashion and new customization and print emerged before me. This was Conartists, a creative collective spanning fashion designers, painters, installations, music and graphic artists all working out of the same studio space and regularly putting on exhibitions and events. I had a chat with studio curator and multi-artist Brian Shevlin about what was currently happening on Ludlow Street's art scene. Check it out on our Live Stream.

FASHION: Shopping NYC's Lower East Side

For some unusual, smaller and quirkier brands New York's Lower East Side is a great place to find designer boutiques stocking up on the latest New Yorker and International labels. We took a video tour through the garment racks at International Playground and checked out designs by Chromat Garments and Carlos Campos.
