Stickers, aufkleber, street art, political posters, des affiches, ephemera
Two nights ago, I threw my cell phone out of the 12th floor of the hotel where I was staying in NYC, so if anyone tries to call that number, it’s kaput. Here is a blurry shot from the same window. Look for the reddish rectangle in the center of the image.
After going to Pictoplasma in Berlin in 2006, I had to attend the 2008 conference so close in NYC. Most of the events were held at NYU’s handsome Skirball Center. My favorite lecture was by Akinori Oishi (who goes by “Aki”). I asked if he’d consider doing an exhibition at SLU, so I’ll follow up with him via email in the weeks ahead.
Melissa and Carole helped out big-time collecting stickers on Thursday afternoon–115 in all! Not much political stuff yet, which surprised me. But a few gems, nonetheless. Check out my Flickr site for more images (coming soon!).
