Opening reception for New York Shitty an off-off Armory Show!
March 2 -12 2016 Con Artist Gallery
Street Art has made conversation on the street, in the public space, for decades. Non commissioned, uncensored, unwanted, resented and prosecuted: the many forms of street art have demanded dialog, have created a visual conversation between artists and the public.
It remains an ongoing visual response and expression to social issues. At this point also invited and commissioned, street art keeps changing forms and mediums reflecting current art practice and technology.
Con Artist Collective has found works from nitty gritty urban raw energy to conceptual design with positive messages.
Lock on sculptures, stencil work, wheatpasted posters, murals, sculptural street installations, live art, graffiti, art trucks, found objects, street theater and concepts for Urban interaction..
