Art Is My Hustle, by T.Magic on May 1, 2008 1:26:50 GMT 1, Whatโs up people?
I know this is an age-old question. But I just have to ask it. Can we class art as advertising? And vice versa?
When I created this piece my intentions where to blur the lines of art and advertising. I also questioned on the idea I ownership by placing the โTMโ (that are my initials T.Magic) and placing it on the streets - where there becomes no ownership.
I think advertising is a form of art and vice versa. I think it still posses the purpose of persuading and trying to communicate with the viewer whilst using visuals to get the attention. Advertising can create the illusion that some pieces of Art have a higher value; As Art can create the illusion of a 3D space on a 2D sheet of paper
Thoughts?

Art Is My Hustle, by artstylee on May 1, 2008 1:57:09 GMT 1, The lines have been blurred just like the smudged/flawed "A" in your stencil piece.
Not sure if this did anything to progress Art, Stencil Art, Advertising or the idea of ownership with this but I'm glad you did this instead of something gayer.
I'm a ball buster, no really, good for you.

Art Is My Hustle, by T.Magic on May 1, 2008 10:03:23 GMT 1, ^I'm not trying to con anyone. The statement does not sell you anything but art as an idea.
Art Is My Hustle means that one invents artistic creations in order to survive. Which puts pressure on the artist to creat good art.
Thanks for the feedback

Well Said,
To me a Piece of Art should be able to stand by itself, without some words telling you how to feel/ or altering how you feel about it.
If a Piece of Art Requires TEXT to convey a point, then how thought out or imporant is the content contained within the image, if you can't draw your own conclusion about it without including an instruction manual on how to feel about it.
