I met Michael Anderson the other night while he was busy at work.

This born and bred Bronx beauty makes pop art mostly through massive collages over what appear to be standard canvas frames, however, our encounter was made while he was assembling one of his pieces, a massive 'mural' of sorts. From '94 to '04, he has been collecting grifitti tag-stickers around the city, building a collection of over 40,000 pieces.

Come and see if your old tag is up on the wall at the newly opened Ace Hotel New York lobby, where the work has been permenantly installed.
