Returning images of the Public to the Public
The goal of the Wandering workshop is to use images as introductions, as conversations, to speak to the people who are in the images.We are interested in returning the images of the street to the street. On January 27th, images from Guadalajara, and San Francisco were posted on a wall fronting the jail cells of the former Mission Police Station. The wall is dedicated to freedom of speech by the (de)Appropriation Project . Poetry and images from Los Angeles and Mexico will be added later, to continue the dialogue.
The Mural is on 24th Street and Valencia in San Francisco’s Mission District, at 1240 Valencia.
We hope you can make time to see the work on the street. The images will only be up as long as the weather and neighborhood allow.
i saw the valencia street wall and after some research found out who created it.
here’s my documentation of the wall. i liked the work that came out of your workshop and enjoyed the presentation tonite. galleries feel less meaningful and inaccessible than the streets.
