For the past week, we've been running around the streets of Chelsea, the Lower East Side, and Randall's Island, consuming every semblance of a brushstroke we could get a glimpse of. New York Art Week is one of the busiest weeks for anyone remotely involved in culture, and this year was no different. Between all the running around, we were able to stop and reflect upon some of the amazing artwork we saw. From some of the most famous living artists in the world to the brightest talents of tomorrow, we rounded up our favorite pieces from New York Art Week. Click through to see our pictures!
