New Art, Old Wall

Spotted this across the street from New Wave Coffee.

I was actually heading over to catch a bus, on my way to Wicker Park to check out Mr. Imagine’s Toy Store when I spotted this guy. Got my camera out in time to do a quick photo, and had to run back to catch the bus before it left.

Not really sure who this is, though. The hat makes me think of Leonard Cohen, but everything else doesn’t match up there.

It was only after I looked at the image in Photoshop that I spotted the monkey in the corner – who is also wearing a tie. Apparently, ties are cool now. All the primates are wearing them.
