Interview with Jordan Seiler of PublicAdCampaign.com

Jordan Seiler of Illegalsigns.ca’s American comrade, PublicAdCampaign.com pulled together what many could argue as one of the largest organized guerilla art campaigns in regards to illegal billboards in recent memory (perhaps ever). Doing all North American cities proud, Seiler, along with over 40 participants, white-washed illegal billboards across the city followed quickly by artwork, messages, and general visually stimulating fare to take back the public space. Space that companies, namely NPA Outdoor had obtained and utilized in complete disregard of the city’s bylaws, resulting in excessively cluttered streets.

Art from Ji Lee, Tristan Eaton, Gaia and Rachel , Aakash Nihilani, Maya Hayuk, MOMO and I AM was featured among the myriad of work south of 30th Street in Manhattan. In the midst of artist charges and show documentation, Seiler took a moment out of his busy schedule to answer our legal and art queries.
