"Citzen Artists Making Emphatic Statements" Movie and Blog Post
The "Citizen Artists Making Emphatic Statements" exhibit was an event focused on art, culture, and music. People from all over the city came to join the festivities and be a part of the positive messages.
Al Nodal, the creator said, “It is an exhibition about artists that work in the public realm that care about issues. Artists are like everyone else, they read the news, and they care about issues.”
Artist Matias Viegener said, “We kind of look at the whole world through the lens of fruit.” when asked to explain what the “Fallen Fruit Project” is all about.
The “Fallen Fruit” exhibit is a collaborative activist art project where three men have come together to work on projects aiming to engage neighborhoods and cities in America to bring the relationship between fruit and the public closer. They hope to teach people about history and help them think of the future.
The event was located at the 18th Street Art Complex in Santa Monica. There were photo series pieces, protests pieces, mappings, and paintings. Families of all kinds attended and there was beer. It was an event for people to collaborate and get connected, not only with each other but with the art as well.
