The Buff

Posted: August 5th, 2010 | Author: | Category: Art News, Photos | Tags: | 3 Comments »

And so it is, the only piece that has been buffed in DC since my recent visit in July has in fact been a permission wall. Due to complaints from local neighbors, the manager of Whole Foods circumvented the building owner and had the piece painted over. The result of which is a perfect reflection of the former Rooster figure and two hands in negative space.

    It doesn’t make any sense. Does the off-color buff look better than the original piece? People are too up tight in DC. This is one reason why I left.

    This is too bad. You know how much I love Deny Me Three Times.

    That’s such a shame. On the most basic level, anyone can see that the piece was so much better than the off-coloured paint that covers it. Such a waste.
