Erik Foss’s installation titled “Homeless America” at D A Arts in San Francisco’s notorious Tenderloin, is guaranteed to stir up some conversation. Foss contributed to the homeless community by purchasing 50 of their signs for $5 each and creating an epic American Flag in the open space on the corner of Minna and 6th Street. Here’s a sneak peak to his show “Smokem If You Gottem” that opens November 15th 2008 form 7pm until 11pm.

A MAZE
CELSO AND INFINITY PRESENT
STIKMAN AND LA II
& introducing: Cbeauty

Opening Reception: Friday, November 14, 6-10pm
November 14 – December 2, 2008

New York City street artists Celso & infinity present A Maze, an exhibition and installation of work based on networks and passages. A gallery-sized, 7-foot-tall maze, constructed entirely out of original art, will immerse participants in a multidimensional environment designed to overwhelm the senses.

The work invites viewers to choose their path to a destination that, ultimately, is unknown. Random decisions have to be made at each artistic obstruction: Continue right or left? Go back and chose another route? The end result could offer great reward. Likewise, it could be a dead end. You choose.

The New York Times described their most recent collaboration, Post No Bills, a street art gallery in Long Island City as “Audacious.” The new show also features work by mysterious street art shaman Stikman, graffiti artist LA II (Little Angel Ortiz, a protégé and collaborator with street art legend Keith Haring) and also introduces the graceful and intricate art of Cbeauty.

A Maze is a site specific installation made for Factory Fresh that is curated and conceived by Celso and infinity in an attempt to better understand the challenges presented by working in an ever changing artistic landscape.

Factory Fresh is located at 1053 Flushing Avenue between Morgan and Knickerbocker, off the L train Morgan Stop

A City Renewal Project from Dan Bergeron on Vimeo.

Established in 1994, The International Network of Street Papers (INSP) is a global engine to alleviate local and global poverty through social enterprise and communication. Composed of 88 street paper members in 37 countries spanning 6 continents, the Network is a united voice against economic and social exclusion.

Since the end of the 1980s, street papers have provided an immediate solution to an urgent need, enabling poor and homeless people to earn a dignified income and help themselves to rebuild their lives and find a place in society. The street papers are a long-term tool for social transformation that connect people across harmful social barriers and advocate for the needs and rights of people living in poverty. They reach  over 32 million readers worldwide every year.

On NOVEMBER 16th more than 60 street artists from around the world will convene in Norway for a charity auction in which all proceeds will go directly towards INSP.
