Space Invader arrested on Orchard street (NYC) while installing a new mosaic piece


Space invader, the french artist known from his mosaic pieces has been arrested. This was reported by Mark Miller owner of an art gallery on Orchard street (Source). Mark received a call by the police that they arrested Space Invader and his crew while pasting a mosaic piece above the Ernest Sewn Clothing shop at the intersection of Orchard and Broome street. 

Mark Miller himself removed the mosaic piece from his wall. We wonder why! He stated that he won't sell the piece. A shame that such beautiful work of art that is meant to be on the streets has been taken down. At least we still have the pictures.

It's not the first time that Space Invader has been arrested. Back in 2011 the french artist was arrested in Los Angeles.
