NO HAY FORMA!! Quieren derrumbar mural de Notorious B.I.G (a.k.a Biggie Smalls) en la ciudad de Brooklyn?


A pesar de los esfuerzos del propietario de este edificio ubicado en la esquina de Bedford avenue y Quincy st en la ciudad de brooklyn, NY, muchas son las organizaciones de arte y lideres de esta ciudad que no han permitido que este mural de uno de los iconos del hip hop mundialmente (Biggie) sea derrumbado y/o pintado. Incluyendo el equipo de los Brooklyn Nets y la organizacion de arte de NYC Spread Art NYC. Aqui te dejamos el post original de estos ( Para el que no sabe ingles pongalo en el traductor de google)

A few updates on "king Of NY" Mural: we just want everyone to know that Spread Art NYC, your humble community Art organization has been working real hard to keep this mural up for the past year! Landlord always calls us and Claims that the neighbors are complaining about the mural and the crowds it attracts. About 4 months ago, he told us about the construction he will be doing which will damage the mural in the process. He will be opening Windows on the wall to increase rent profit by $500 according to them. Today Spread Art NYC offered $5000 (which we planned to gather from the community and the fans) not to open the windows. Unfortunately, that offer was declined and it was answered by a counteroffer of $1250 a month. At this point, there is nothing Spread Art NYC can do to save this mural. We will continue to serve our neighborhoods regardless!! Community is our goal, we like to give back and we thought A biggie mural at the corner of #bedfordandquincy was needed to keep the culture alive, to keep Brooklyn Alive. We always say, Brooklyn is Biggie and Biggie is Brooklyn. A landlord can NEVER change that! We want to thank everyone for the love! We promise, we GOT YOU!!!💪💯#spreadartnyc #20bigyears #bedstuy #bedfordstuyvesant#biggie #kingofny #livefrombedfordstuyvesant#spreadloveitsthebrooklynway
MAY 15

Today marks what would have been the late Notorious B.I.G.'s 45th birthday. The iconic mural of Christopher Wallace (at Bedford Avenue and Quincy Street in Brooklyn) is at risk of being taken down, but we are stepping in and working with @spreadartnyc and other NYC leaders to help see that it stays. Spread love. It's the Brooklyn way. #HappyBirthdayBiggie

Spread Art NYC ofrecio la cantidad de US$5000 para que el mural no sea quitado, pero el propietario, Samuel Berkowitz, dice que no necesita autorizacion de nadie que no sea el estado para hacer cualquier tipo de cambio en su edificio. Que no le importa ni le interesa ni entiende el significado que tiene para muchos este mural, ya que es uno del os ultimos murales que quedan de Biggie en la ciudad. A pesar de las propuestas hechas a Berkowitz este ha declinado todas y quiere un pago mensual de US$1250 para mantener el mural en su pared, a lo que todavia no ha a aparecido nadie que acepte a estos terminos. 
Por lo pronto este mural sera tumbado en poco tiempo. R.I.P Biggie Smalls...
