Sometimes we see one by this artist and think, 'aw, totally cute.' Sometimes they come off a bit twee. Sometimes it makes us think that Politics really has no place in art. Sometimes it makes us want to vote Republican and starting rounding most of you up for group showers. Sometimes it makes us think Creativity Explored produces the only meaningful art left in the city.
How about you?




GodDAMMit.
Well, we've got to have shitty pedantic crazies on both side, I get.
(and really? this is enough to call art? something that's clearly just a mock-up of a bland design, no creative input on visuals at all? LAME.)
It doesn't make me want to vote Republican. It just makes me roll my eyes and want to kick an art student in the shins.
I second the comment about Creativity Explored, but I wouldn't say they are the *only* meaningful art...
I am reminded of the guy who used to roam the Mission painted/dressed in red who would try to shove his newsletter into my hands whenever I saw him at Muddy Waters. This is like him, but on medication.
i meant it for reals. i really enjoy CE. it always seems to be on the tip without looking back, if that makes sense.
tweeeeeee!
there's nothing clever or artistic about this.
people who call themselves artists never make art.
you should be given a wedgie for even posting this kind of vapid stuff.
I don't get it. I read it when I come home to the Fillmore, I read it along Bryant street on the way to work. And I'm confused.
The only thing interesting is that it racks up a lot of hits on my flickr account.
It's uninspired. Fortune cookie saying are more thought provoking then this stuff. Obviously the person behind this is trying to turn this into a brand and apparently most of the public isn't feeling it.
I think it's great. But the person(s) doing this would certainly get a better reception if the comments were actually witty and thought provoking.
The Artist General will be homeless in two years. How's THAT for a warning?
Does he do this because he's no good at sidewalk stenciling?
This guy is a hack. Next.
Stupes.
When I saw my first one, I thought it was trivial but clever. Now they don't even care about making sense.
OMG, I just realized the guy this is Michael Masley, the popular, and amazing, bay area hammered dulcimer player.
Hmmmmmmmm
Interesting idea.
Lame execution. The artist needs better (smarter, funnier) text.
I'm against it.
This makes me want to go punch someone in the tit.
Indeed - I just found out who it is when the Artist General tried to friend me on facebook...
wow, did I read group showers?, what a fascist who wrote this.
Is this writer coming from San Francisco?
And I love how most of you went with the flow, wow.... talking about conformity being addictive...
The guy above was right this is Michael Masley, a world renowned artist, who's life will be projected in the silver soon.
check out the site of the film about him.

I don't mean to judge but you fellas should investigate a little bit more before making such stupid comments... but that's just me.
