In recent years, the French artist known as Invader installed a number of intriguing street-art projects he calls attacks in several cities, some of which are still visible here in the Chelsea gallery district. Above (right) the former Heavenly Body Works building on West 22nd Street between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues, home now to a Comme des Garçons boutique, you'll find a handsome green Pac-Man ghost made of Rubik's cubes. And a block away (left) at the corner of West 21st Street and Eleventh Avenue you'll find this nice tile Space Invader.
Invader first installed some great tile work in 2000 in SoHo and around town. In 2006, Invader installed some massive Rubik's Cube-inspired sculptures around Paris, and you can admire some of his more recent exhibitions on his website.
