Coordinated attackAn anti-art-world painting

The young man with a fresh flat-top haircut and snazzy duds had to sneak around at two in the morning to get his art done. For the hundredth time, it was throw the ladder up against the wall and go to work with the spray cans.

This piece was a wild affair. A totally abstract design that was bold and dynamic; but here and there in small areas the art descended into visual madness. The goal was simple – to create art that made people look. That’s all. Just to tickle people’s eyes.

Two hours later, it was done. Nobody noticed him doing it, except for a few truck drivers, who tooted a tune on the air horns as a sign of appreciation.

The best art is a mystery. It is accessible to everybody. The best art isn’t always in the homes of rich people.
