Subersive anti-Olympic sponsor art is springing up all over London. fantastic stuff!
The activist art fraternity are getting really busy and there is going to be spome really imaginative stuff about the place.
What a shame if this takes the shine of some of the slick branding!
A great photoshop mock-up of how the London Olympic Stadium might look if LOCOG go ahead with the crazy idea of allowing Dow Chemical to supply the nasty plastic ‘wrap’.

Revers graffiti piece created by Moose Curtis and dedicated to the survivors of the Bhopal Disaster
In Moose’s own words:
“I was being filmed by CNN when I made the piece, ( its just rainwater fired against wooden stencils on some really toxic looking sea wall lichen) it represented the horrid ring of poison created by the original pollution and the take over of Union Carbide by the drug company (Dow Chemical) who are the poison on the other half of the eternity ring. I talked about what little I know about the disaster, while they filmed, but they edited the whole thing out just having me say at the end of the film that ’ I really liked it and it looked good”.
Stik talks about corporate accountability at the Pure Evil ‘Skullduggerous’ show. Are you listening Mr. Andrew Liveris, CEO of Dow?
