To the utter dismay of the Johnathon Levine Gallery in Chelsea the art theif who stole a drawing from the gallery earlier this month has struck again! The art lifter was able to walk out with yet another piece from the current exhibition of Lori Earley's work Fade to Gray, even though they upgraded security since the last theft.
Here's the second B-burglarized painting titled "Awaiting."
Looks like we have another mystery on our hands! Where's my kerchief?

Art Burglar Strikes Again!

Amber Alert Issued for Missing Artwork

Taken from a Jonathan LeVine Gallery newsletter:
On Wednesday, February 27th at approximately 5pm, an original drawing by Lori Earley was stolen directly off the wall of her current solo exhibition, Fade to Gray, which just opened this past weekend. The drawing “Untitled” was in an elaborate white frame, measuring 16" x 14".
The suspect in question is a white male, approximately 6’2” tall, in his mid-to-late thirties. He was seen wearing a blue baseball hat with a navy blue backpack, and he spoke with a very heavy New York accent.
I'd like to think the art thief is right now molesting the piece in his tiny apartment, keeping it in a unlit room, and feeding it old hotdogs until someone leaves him $35,000 in unmarked bills in a garbage can in Seward Park with no funny stuff.
