OK, just back from a quick NY jaunt and, you know that’s going to mean a few shop windows. We’ll start with Barney’s…where I never seem to buy anything.

Clever windows by Sheldon, Mindel & Associates…although we’ve talked about this newsprint thing to death I think so lets not dither too long…

Next was Joe Grillo and his Fluorescent Scented (lumps of stuff really). I wasn’t entirely convinced.

BUT…WAIT…because right next door was a REAL aesthetic gem. A sort of Chris Ofili meets Huxley. I was entirely delighted with this (and yes, its a construction site). Am thinking to brand it as Gen-U-Ine New York Pigeon Poo…(or should I say dung? or guano?) with deep Huxley-esque connotations (the ‘message center‘!) and enter it for the Turner Prize?????

It’s so completely lovely…….and thank you sweet doorman who got in trouble for letting me in to photograph it!
