Film and Video: “Exit Through the Gift Shop”

Film and Video: “Exit Through the Gift Shop”

Recommended by a special person, I traveled to Sunshine Theatre to watch the “Exit Through the Gift Shop“. The documentary was about street art and the most notable artists who create it. In addition, this documentary has a chilling, meaningful twist. I don’t want to give away the story, but I do encourage that you go see it before it leaves theaters. The theatre experience does the film justice! Watch the trailer below and follow this link to find local listings.

Propaganda Art: Street Artist Poster Boy NYC

Propaganda Art: Street Artist Poster Boy NYC

Poster Boy is an anonymous New York City based street artist whose only utensil is a razor. He is known for satiric collage-like works created by cutting out sections of the self-adhesive advertisement posters in the platforms of New York City subway stations, and pasting them back in different positions. He lives in Brooklyn, New York. Poster Boy also refers to a ‘Poster Boy movement’ where other people produce similar unsigned work in the New York City subways imitating this original artist.
