me and DAVe
My favorite artist, DAVe Warnke, was at Timbuk2 this evening making art to raise money for his "Street Art" program for high school kids. Instead of the 3 "R's," he teaches the 3 "P's":
Purpose: What is the purpose of your art? Is it personal, political, or something else?
Placement: If you put your art on a trashcan or a park bench or a telephone pole, does it beautify the park bench, or does it destroy the park bench?
Permission: It's usually a good thing if you can get permission to place your art.
