hey, some people in San Francisco ripped the Illegal-Art site:
http://illegal-art.com/

it brings up some really good points. like:

"how can such work be said to be outsider, outlaw, illegal, when
it is showcased by the corporate-backed SF MOMA? Perhaps such
irony is deliberate. Still, if such work is "illegal," then does
that make the art by everybody else "legal'? What does that mean?
Does that mean accepted, legitimate, even tame? Even ? gasp! ?
Mainstream? Inside, Outside. Us and Them. Are these boundaries
really so absolute? "

did anyone go to the opening they did at Build in SF? anyone take
photos?

smh
