Brooklyn Insiders: Lee Quinones from Chuck Gibson on Vimeo.

Brooklyn Insiders is a video project that allows us to get to know influential people and the realities around them. We take a look at their environment and let them tell us how and why Brooklyn is the reason they stay relevant.

Lee Quinones is considered the single most influential artist to emerge from the New York City subway art movement. He is a celebrated figure in both the contemporary art world and in popular culture circles, faithfully producing work that is ripe with provocative socio-political content and intricate composition.

In 1929, Johnny Weissmuller, an Austrian-Hungarian-born American swimmer and actor best known for playing Tarzan in movies, inaugurated the Piscine Molitor (also known as the Piscines Auteuil-Molitor or the Grands établissements balnéaires d’Auteuil) swimming pool in Paris (what is why I call it Tarzan’s swimming pool). As well as the beautiful La Jarry, this wonderful Art Deco building, which hosted the popular introduction of the bikini by Louis Réard in 1946, is planned to be destroyed in 2012!

The 4-star Tarzan Swimming Pool Instead of that great, abandoned Art Deco design atmosphere, the new investors leased the property for 54 years (for round about €64.8 million) and are going to build a 4-star hotel, a health center, and a medical center, as well as retail, restaurants, and parking facilities, what’s in my eyes is completely incomprehensible.

For that reason half French, half Hungarian, Los Angeles based artist Mambo created a giant swimming pool collage, as a giant tribute to the olympic champ as well as a bridge between this golden era and today. The documenting video (see above) also gives some great insights into the building itself and makes me wonder why on earth someone would destroy such a nice place which was intensely used by urban artists, urban explorers..

Why you ask? cause i was a huge fan of the B&W Tarzan movies as a child!
