In this Sept. 10, 2015 photo, a large gazelle mural is shown on the side of a building in the Harlem neighborhood of New York. The mural is one of about half a dozen that have been commissioned as part of a campaign to raise awareness for a nonprofit created by Maziar Bahari, the journalist who spent 118 days in an Iranian jail after an appearance on “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. The murals are being painted on buildings around the city as the United Nations General Assembly kicks off Tuesday, Sept. 15. Bahari hopes the art will attract the attention of diplomats and spark a conversation about human rights.
