Art I'm Looking At: Found Art (April 7, 2009)



On the way to school this morning, walking my son, I came across a number of chalk scribbles on the sidewalk that caught my eye. Someone had drawn hopscotch boards and doodled alongside of them. These abandoned drawings struck me as beautiful. I captured fragments with my iPhone camera, creating collaborative images--found art. Similar scribbles must be on the streets of virtually every American city, from Washington to Cincinnati to San Francicso. Art is everywhere.

[Update (April 8): It rained last night. This found art is now gone.]
