World’s Top Artists Create Affordable Art on Post-It Notes for Annual Gallery Show #ArtTuesday
Giant Robot displays 100’s of post-it-note art pieces from top artist. In an industry where the upper echelons dictate value this project shows the versatility and accessibility of art.
Via My Modern Met:
Nakamura expands on the importance of Post-Its as an untraditional but perfect canvas. When the gallery walls are covered in the small pieces, they turn into a patchwork quilt of creativity. When a buyer brings a piece home, it’s the chance to own a high quality piece at an entry-level price. It’s also an important way for children to see that anyone can be an artist. It allows all to be inspired and shows the next generation that art is within reach.
Nakamura says, “I think Post-its are great since they’re ubiquitous items that people doodle on and at the same time provides a great medium that confines but at the same time challenges. Have you seen what people are doing on a 3×3″ piece of paper? It’s nuts.”
