Delete Advertising

Artist: Ji Lee
"Jordan Seiler's incrediblely ambitious "New York Street Advertising Takeover" became a reality yesterday, when over 120 illegal billboards throughout the city were white washed by dozens of volunteers.
NYSAT was organized as a reaction to the hundreds of billboards that are not registered with the city, and therefore are illegal. While illegal, these violations are not being prosecuted by the City of New York, allowing the billboard companies to garner huge profits by cluttering our outdoor space with intrusive and ugly ads.
After the illegal spots were white washed, late in the day yesterday over eighty artists transformed these spaces into personal pieces of art."

I'm gutted. I went to an exhibition today and totally fell in love with one the prints. It was just above my price range so it took me ages to decide whether to buy or not. Once I did I was told it had been sold out for a while. It totally broke my heart. The artist is Alexandros Vasmoulakis from Greece. The print in question is the very last in this post. Enjoy. This guy is quality.
