On the Cover: A mural painted at Kent Avenue and South 3rd Street in Williamsburg by the collective Colossal Media. The painting, which features the artists and actors in some of fall’s most anticipated projects, took ten gallons of paint, ten painters, and 258 colors to complete in just under ten days. It will be up through September 11; for video of its creation, go here. Photographs by David La Spina/Esto for New York Magazine. Collage by Gluekit.
