Mosaic Man Adds Flair to New Bean Location on 1st Avenue

And the hits keep coming. Fresh off the success of their first collaboration, neighborhood coffee shop The Bean is again tapping the artistic services of Jim “Mosaic Man״ Power.

Once renovations are complete (very soon) at the new 147 First Avenue location, The Bean will occupy two highly-trafficked East Village corners. The Mosaic Man, now an in-house artist of sorts for the java joint, is seemingly along for the ride. Last week, the 64-year-old artist added sparkling coffee cups to complement the colorful “steam” murals already in place by Walker Fee (commissioned by Paint the Town).

The artwork on the first avenue location is hidious. Such a nice new buidling & this is the best they can do? The Broadway location is suited for Broadway, but this? I’m sure the new owners of this building must be gagging at this crap. Mosaicman needs to limited his artwork, it’s too much, it should be exclusive to coffebean
