Chico is the default muralist in the East Village, he seems to have the store-burglar-gate franchise, just about all of them are painted by him and his crew. Here’s his Obama and McCain mural on Avenue C.

Celia Cruz Mural

| Celia Cruz memorial replaces the Pope and "Peace Not Memorials" mural (see below) on Houston Street near Avenue B. This is a new mural by "Chico and Pete." The line is a lot livelier than Chico usually gets, I’d have to credit "Pete." |

Probably 80% of the murals in this area are done by one artist, Chico. It is very rare to see anyone write over his work. This political one was an exception, it gathered some magic marker comments. Also it was promptly modified to tone-down it’s political content. Houston Street and Avenue B.
