The International Center of Photography has opened its new Bowery location with an unnerving, powerful show.

The graffiti and street art was stripped from 190 Bowery today.

You can make out the People's Theatre, Doyers Street, the Bowery Mission, the Third Avenue El, panty peddlers, ancient pretzel vendors, smoking men, sleeping men, and a well-dressed man picking food out of the trash.
