On the 23rd of June 2003 Gimpo and I started our
epic journey from John O Groats to Lands End... disappearing from view in the
wing mirrors of our transit van were the first of the yellow placards that by
the end of our subversive road trip, some 24hrs later, would run the
full length of these island nations... the placards read "Blair is a LIAR" and
"Demand World Peace" and were affixed at regular visible roadside
vantages.
(interestingly i believe that the signs on the
north side of the Inverness bridge are still there... they must be proving as
difficult a sod to get down as they were to put up)
In March 2004 we also spent a lap or
two of the M25 spin festooning the roadside and overhead gantries with
them... at the end of the spin all those who had joined us that year
received several placards to take with them on the understanding that they
should also find their way into interesting, unusual but highly visible
locations... we have subsequently had reports and photo's of these placards
turning up all over the place
This particular installation on 23rd street
i believe to be Todd's handywork from around the american election
campaign last year
More recently the "justAAArt" project has
moved on a little this year with a number of Subversive Roadside Signart
installations, in the summer, including a couple of short dvd films
called "Homelessness - A BBC Crimewatch Reconstruction"
Where it will all lead is a good deal less
predictable than the M25 but i reckon it'll be another interesting trip all the
same
As i've mentioned the spin i might as well
tell you that the 2006 spin is our tenth and will be held on the weekend of
March 25 - 26... if you fancy joining us this year speak up...
Love Peace & Happiness
Tim

Just spotted this on-line. Presumably a PVC connection somewhere
- but I don't think anyone put up a link to the photo at the time.
