Babelgum Metropolis has partnered up with Time Out New York, Scope Art Fair and Perpetual Art Machine and is looking for the globe's best and edgiest artists to win US $20,000 and have their work shown on giant advertising screens in Times Square, the neon heart of New York City. Not only will you get the chance to share your artwork with millions in the world's contemporary art capital, you'll also enjoy the kudos of being a maverick art squatter among New York's most expensive advertising real estate!
Winners will be chosen by iconic art-house actress and video artist Isabella Rossellini, Cedar Lewisohn curator of the 2008 ‘Street Art’ exhibition at the Tate Modern in London, Lee Wells curator-at-large of Scope Art Fair and director of PAM, and Howard Halle, Art Editor of Time Out New York.

YES MEN HONCHO SPRUNG FROM CLINK
"Balls Across America" direct-action campaign launched
NYPD abuse of authority big factor in arrest
Contact: The Yes Men
Andy Bichlbaum, co-founder of activist group the Yes Men, emerged after 26 hours in New York City's central lockup with all charges against him dismissed.[1]
"The judge just laughed," said Bichlbaum. "The police had a less well-developed sense of humor - and, it turned out, much less regard for the law. But all in all, I'm ecstatic that they arrested me."

After 42 years of living in the New York Art World, and 9 years working in it, I have decided that it's time to put up a shingle. I'm opening a new art project space in Williamsburg under the name PLAYSPACE. It's located at 38-C Marcy Avenue, entrance on Hope Street, three short blocks and around a corner from the L train at Lorimer Street.
