[Street Art – During the early eighties I took part in several street art projects that were organized by Political Art Documentation Distribution (PADD), Collab, Group Material, and Carnival Knowledge. Among those projects were... ] the ads for Real State, a satirical real estate agency. Those ads were pasted up in areas of NYC that were being rapidly gentrified in the early eighties, the Park Slope Area of Brooklyn and the East Village of Manhattan. I was invited to do a project by members of Collab that I called "Stick It: Ra-decals for the Angry Consumer." These self-adhesive stickers (produced pre-computer) were used in supermarkets, department stores, and on subway advertisements to make comments about the products being sold and the manner in which they were being sold. Group Material curated an exhibition for the subway and I have included my poster, "Eight Ways to Cope with Being Stuck between Stations." Images from Carnival Knowledge will be posted here at a later date.
