By Earth Day 250,000 people will see my eco-logicl art exhibit in the first day. By the end of the month the number of people who will see LA's first "Drive-By" gallery will be over 7 million. There's only one small problem-- the art that will make up the OFF THE WALL 3 show...it doesn't exist yet.
It starts today-- "ReVisions" recycled billboard art project.

!2 new artists, a dozen recycled 14 x 48 foot billboards to go up around LA by Jan 12th, 2008 as part of the "ReVisions" public "drive-by" art exhibit. It all started today. The scale of the project is daunting. Besides the size of these things; think whales-- this time I'm trying the whole process open to the public-- which means creating free standing installations 48 feet around and 15 feet tall. On top of that on Saturday December 15th we're throwing a block party" GREEN SATURDAY AT ECO-LA" at which all the billboards will be out on the street, painted by the aritsts so people can see it "up Close". Even in drought stricken LA I'm praying already for no rain. Happen to have several Native american painters... Steven and Tschetan get those (anti) rain gods on our side.
Here are some of the images that-- hopefully... will make the translatin to 10 feet by 13 feet each; three to a 14 x 48 foot billboard. Ultimately when they go up for "ReVisons" they wil be seen over 40 million times.
Somehow I've got to figure out how to "curate" these images, plus another 8... By tomorrow you can check back to see how i do.
