Many of the pictures represent what Nicolescu saw during his walks around Roosevelt Island. This bit of ironic whimsey gave Romanian crowds a sense of how the local community represents its own slice of New York City.
The exhibit was set up with an uncrowded look, allowing unhurried enjoyment of the work.
