Celebrates Art Carney as Ed Norton
 2010 Art Carney NPCW

 27th National Post Card Week   
Art Carney’s Ed Norton was the undisputed king of the city sewer system.  After Carney received a press release saying Mastrangelo’s 1994 exhibit of manhole art at The New York Hall of Science “would make Art Carney proud,” he penned her a personal note.

I got a kick out of the material and pictures you sent,” wrote Carney. He also sent Bobbi an autographed photo of Ed Norton climbing out through a manhole chimney.

Please check out this year’s post card and former cards on my National Post Card Week  Page.

Bobbi Mastrangelo- Postcards -”The Grate Works” -transforms manhole covers, sewers and grates into artistic streetscapes.

Featured Artist Bobbi Mastrangelo | Artsy Shark

Well folks, I am feeling especially ARTSY and also HONORED to be featured this week on Artsy Shark, a site for emerging artists. Carolyn Edlund asked about my goals, current art endeavors and my inspirations. She selected seven art works from my web site to accompany the text.

Some of my goals have been met and others may seem rather lofty. I can attribute the aspirations to my parents who encouraged their six children to dream and achieve.

We're All Connected

We're All Connected

“We ‘re All Connected,” features an enhanced rubbing of the Bell System (telephone cover) collaged with pictures of people and places around the world on a  24″ x 18″ canvas.
