Positively 9th Street

An on-line exhibit of paintings and drawings by Brooklyn artists
of, from and about Ninth Street Brooklyn, N.Y.

Like a river running to the sea 9th Street works it’s way the two miles from the Lafayette Statue in Prospect Park past large brownstones, shopping avenues, active churches, an American Revolution burial site toward an industrial landscape of oil companies, iron works and warehouses. It passes three long time Brooklyn landmarks, the Kentile Floor sign, the Gowanus canal and the 9th street overpass (highest point on the N.Y.C. Subway system.) The current show celebrates these landmarks and the street that is home to them. The artists in this show have been nourished by this landscape and have interpreted it in their own unique ways.
