“OK” was an artists’ zine handed out in Center CIty Philadelphia in February 2002. The work is from the “Obliterate Bad Art Project” (1998), a project of the artists’ Zero .1 Percent for Art Commission. The Commission’s stated mission is to bridge the gap between ordinary people and art.

“The OK Art Project” is documented in Wendy Weinberg’s film, “The Art of Activism,” aired on WYBE-TV’s “Philadelphia Stories, 2002 to present.”

This is one of four separate, related pieces given away on the streets of Philadelphia at different times. All of the objects were included in a solo show (April 27, 2008) at the Philadelphia Institute for Advanced Studies (PiFAS). It was a one day show/giveaway in a mini-tabletop gallery called GUS. The show was called the “Zero .1% For Art Commission Reading Room and Fire Sale.”
