We are excited to share this article about our "Mom-and-Pops of the L.E.S" storefront art installation currently on display inside Seward Park.

It was written by 3A Composite USA, the manufacturers of Dibond, the aluminum composite material we used to create our large-scale photos of four "mom-and-pop" shops.

"To help raise awareness about the plight of these small businesses, the Murrays created “Mom-and-Pops of the L.E.S.”, a large-scale wood-frame sculptural installation designed to resemble a store. Each of the installation’s four walls is covered with a lifelike 8-by-12 foot photograph of a neighborhood storefront from Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Three of these businesses have closed."
