First Major Historical Survey of Graffiti and Street Art Coming to Brooklyn Museum Next Spring

Mark your calendars for early 2012. According to Graffnews, Jeffrey Deitch, formerly of New York’s most street art-savvy gallery Deitch Projects and now director of Los Angeles’s Museum of Contemporary Art, will bring his brand of populist, youth-courting art back home to NYC when his first major museum survey of graffiti, street art and street art photography, Art in the Streets, which opened in LA this year, will come to the Brooklyn Museum next year, from March 30 to July 8, 2012.
