VISUAL THINKING SCHOOL IN #STL! (Taken with Instagram at Dachis Group | STL)


PEOPLE have been THINKING too long that ART is a PRIVILEGE of the MUSEUMS & the RICH. ART IS NOT BUSINESS!

Bob Cassilly or Bill Christman said it


There was no life, then all of a sudden life tried everything. It came to all these dead ends. They were fascinating dead ends, but they were dead ends. So I want to compare the Precambrian explosion with the Industrial Revolution, which was the equivalent of the Precambrian explosion. Mechanically, things became wide open, things exploded with possibilities. There were 50,000 kinds of cars. Now there’s one car — they all look the same. There were all this simple kind of mechanical machines and monster things.

They talk about historic districts and stuff like that, but one of the main things is, our architecture is basically copying shit from Europe. But our industry, it’s kind of like jazz, it’s an American, original thing. Why not look at it for what it is? It’s impressive. It might be threatening, but you can’t help but be impressed by it.

I always overtip. Because at the end of the night, your feet hurt and you get to count it up and there’s a nice feeling when you’ve gotten tipped well. I know what it’s like. My mom lived on tips.

St. Louis was a world of kids. All playing. Playing in the rain. Playing till after the sun went down and you got called. “John-nnnnnny!” And then you listened to the Cards at night.Jack Buck and Harry Caray. “Ba-da-da-da-dum.

Why Cheap Art? It needs to be everywhere because it is INSIDE the WORLD.
