outdoor patio or art installation

curbside table and chairs, in situ

After I see a particularly thought-provoking art exhibit, I think everything is art, which is not a bad way to think when you think about it. But given what I've observed as the New Yorker's desperate need to eat and drink outside in an outdoor patio at all costs, even if it means huffing exhaust fumes or sitting right next to a pile of garbage, I am not sure if this particular installation I found on the curb of Greenpoint Avenue Saturday morning was someone's al fresco breakfast nook or something else entirely.
