The WHY CHEAP ART? manifesto

The WHY CHEAP ART? manifesto

PEOPLE have been THINKING too long that

ART is a PRIVILEGE of the MUSEUMS & the

RICH. ART IS NOT BUSINESS !

it does not belong to banks & fancy investors

ART IS FOOD. You can’t EAT it BUT it FEEDS

you. ART has to be CHEAP & available to

EVERYBODY. It needs to be EVERYWHERE

Because it is the INSIDE of the

WORLD.

ART SOOTHES PAIN !

Art wakes up sleepers !

ART FIGHTS AGAINST WAR AND STUPIDITY !

ART SINGS HALLELUJAH !

Art is for kitchens !

ART IS LIKE GOOD BREAD !

Art is like green trees!

Art is like white clouds in blue sky !

ART IS CHEAP !

HURRAH !

-Bread and Puppet, Glover, Vermont, 1984
