Aside from the permanent exhibit, the Beyond the Streets flagship will be home to a curated gift shop and another gallery called Control that was developed by Gastman in partnership with Sky Gellatly, founder of Icnclst creative agency. “Post Graffiti” will also feature a collaboration between Futura 2000 and Kenny Scharf created specifically for the show. “It’s nine feet long and six feet tall,” Gastman says about the piece. “They’ve been friends for 40-plus years, but this is the first true collaborative work they’ve made.”
