Tag! Warhol Homage on the Lower East Side
Spotted:
Campbell’s Tomato Soup Spray, a sticker created by the elusive MBW and tagged, en masse, on a street sign in the Lower East Side of New York.
There’s been a lot of discussion about what Warhol would be like today were he still alive – if he’d support, or even participate, in tagging, street art, and stickers.
I think the answer is yes, but obviously, he’d have to be paid for it:
Warhol was a business and a brand as much as he was an artist – in fact, some could argue that was his art – and spraying on a building you don’t own?
Not so lucrative.
Of course, Banksy’s making millions at auction now, so maybe I’m wrong.
Either way, tomato spray sounds really, really gross -
Unless it comes in a Bloody Mary.
