anybody_wanna_peanut? Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 The Underbelly Truth Posted by Admin | Art, Tunnel, underbelly Below is an article I recently pulled from Host Eighteen's website and consider it to be one of the best write up's about the Underbelly Project. I hate to wear this hat again, but, well… I thought the whole street art thing pretty much died off but someone recently sent me a video about The Underbelly Project. As I watched the video I just thought, “OK this is corny”, which is expected when it comes to the street art scene but as I looked more into the project the more it became apparent that this wasn’t corny. It is actually an absurdly pretentious art stunt featuring mostly untalented and unknown “street artists” who have absolutely no business in a New York City train tunnel. It seems this bullshit was created by 2 guys, neither of which I ever heard of… from the New York Times: “Workhorse, in his late 30s, is a well-known street artist with gallery representation; PAC, younger by a decade, is less established but familiar (under a different name) to followers of urban-art blogs…” It seems being known by what is now called “urban-art” blogs is how street artists measure their mark. It makes sense since I believe most street artists stay off the street as much as possible and only use it as a vehicle to propel their art careers. This is probably why I never heard of most of these people, I don’t visit “urban-art” blogs, but I do often visit the streets of NYC, where I was born and still live. The guise of this project is that it is a figuratively (and literally, obviously) underground project for the sake of art, not for the public or buyers or the media. The NYT said; “Its debut might have been expected to draw critics, art dealers and auction-house representatives, not to mention hordes of young fans. But none of them were invited.” Yo hold up, how the fuck does the New York Times know all this shit? Oh they were given a guided tour, it was also given a large amount of blog coverage after I’m sure these people sent out a press release. Oh yeah I forgot to mention, they also created a site for the project where you can even sign up for their newsletter. Are you laughing yet? For a project that is supposed to be underground and unseen they certainly made sure everyone can see it. My beef with this project isn’t that they painted some shit in a tunnel and put it online for everyone to see, shit, you’re looking at my website where I do nearly the same thing. What is so wack about this is abortion is that it claims to be doing something brand new. I have been in plenty of tunnels in this city and I can tell you that people have been painting in them for 30 plus years. The fact that you have out-of-towners exploiting something that is held close to the heart by the people who did and still do participate in what these johnny-come-latelys are ultimately using as a marketing ploy is a kick in the balls. I have to say I am disappointed in the few people with actual creditability that participated in this circus. What the hell would make a real writer join this mess? You don’t know how to get into a tunnel on your own? I don’t get it. Someone break it down for me please! Update: It seems that a writer paid this “art show” a visit and dissed most of the work down there, writing shit like “the tunnels belong us”. Bravo to this person. I have also been told that a shit load of hipsters and street art fans (same shit) already found the site, a bunch of them getting arrested trying to enter the abandoned station. And check this, a few of these fools tried to get into the tunnel wearing keffiyehs and got rolled on pretty fast. Word? That was a good idea to you? Wearing some shit that the jumpy as hell NYPD considers terrorist apparel? I bet they were wearing Jerusalem cruisers too. Please leave my city already, please. via Host Eighteen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
