max singer has posted almost 1,000 free drawings all over Manhattan. Painter, illustrator and graphic designer
Max Singer has been hanging his drawings in public areas citywide with signs encouraging people to take them home.
The artist is the creative force behind @angstville," a non-linear streetcomix featuring characters he's emblazoned on everything from sidewalks to store windows. The work evolved from creating sidewalk drawings with chalk to making pieces that people could take down and take home with them.
Max has hung his drawings in front of the MET, MoMA, the Whitney and the Guggenheim. Sometimes, he choses one avenue and hangs drawings on trees over a 10-block span. Every Sunday, he creates a small display on the window of The Source, a gift shop near his Yorkville studio. He also maintains a Tumblr blog to chronicle the project.
