Projects: New Street Agenda, 2005 - present

The project New Street Agenda organized by Chester Alamo & Costello is the third in a series of investigations that test one’s understanding of street-level communication and how a simple gesture sometimes functions in today's rapidly changing world. A series of 7 archival prints have been produced and will be placed in the public domain (e.g., city parks) for the casual passerby to find, keep and respond to. These prints are accompanied with a letter and information on the project written in the predominant local language of the city visited. Each city receives 7 different prints from the editions.

In 2013, a series of archival prints from the scribble drawings will be used for the new art drops. These renderings were began during the Searching for Geomantrick project in 1998. This first series of art drops was executed in the Parks of Chicago.
