MOMO SHOW PALACE

Jordan Seiler just impressed the socks off New York City with an enormous illegal ad space take over: “New York Street Advertising Takeover” collected dimensions, addresses, and images of 200 ad spaces in Manhattan and Brooklyn.  Then rallied volunteers to to paint them white within a narrow window of time, allowing artists to install work before the ad company restored order.  Around 30 volunteers knocked out 200 ad spaces with safety vests, work orders, fake official notices, and paint, from timed drop off/pick-up locations.  The ad company must have flipped out.  I think its a stunning heist.

In a bizarre twist, we buffed Andre‘s new liquor ads.  Sorry Dude; I’m sure the ads went back up already.

This is in Williamsburg.  I wonder who did it, and where the fixed point (for bucket on a rope?) was exactly… four feet off the ground?  ten?  I bet Joel’s physics class could figure this one out.

Last Week I missed the cut-off for an art auction to benefit Yuko Sueta, who’s battling metastasized breast cancer.  So lets do this the old fashioned way.  Send me an email momoshowpalace<at>gmail<dot>com with your bid amount, and one week from today [3pm EST 4-13-09] the winner gets the “1000″ print pictured below.  We’ll start at $25 $26.50 $100
Thank You
