Inspirations: Your House is Mine
Posted January 28th, 2005 by eliot
At the And So Forth conference last weekend, Molly talked a little bit about some of the past projects that have inspired us in our work on the No RNC Poster Project, and in our reincarnation as Visual Resistance. I’d like to expand on that discussion with some background information on some of the main projects that we take immediate inspiration from — sort of our guiding lights.
First on the list has got to be Your House Is Mine. Put together in 1992 at Bullet Space, an anarchist squat in the Lower East Side, Your House is Mine had three components: a newsprint publication about housing rights and the squatters’ movement, street posters, and a metal-bound book of writing and silkscreened posters by Eric Drooker, Anton Van Dalen, Andrew Castrucci, Stash Two, Sabrina Jones, Seth Tobocman, Lee Quinones, Lady Pink, David Wojnarowicz, James Romberger & Marguerite Van Cook, Missing Foundation and many, many more.
