> On Friday 26th i went round with the map trying to see as many as i could of the Foundry show, 'Here, you are surrounded by ghosts...' > We didn't expect some of them to last long in this city of pissed-up art vandals, some of them were already deemed 'risky' by Foundry, and, tho' they have drawn the line at actally helpinbg people to steal Foundry work, they do exhibit a pleasing disregard for what happens to it > this attempt at documentation is trying to add something .... > Indeed on Friday 26 i even met The Foundry out on the course checking up on some locations. I can't say i saw all the items as intended (the show consists - yes in some places persists - of a series of signs based on road-signs) > reported conversation between Foundry and the Police > "Is that legal what you're doing?" > "Dunno" > Foundry explain it's fringe and it's art and it's OK. Police listen. > "So you wouldn't mind if we took them down again?" > "So you wouldn't mind if we took pictures of you taking them down again?" > Police retire confused over consequences of becoming part of artwork (art of partwork) themselves. > As of today (6/6) one of the pair of signs around the Police station remains. And still works on its own. > Foundry appear to consider what happens to the work to be at most interesting, ultimately irrelevant, and part of the process of the work anyway. > I never found: > sign outside Snow Hill > sign outside PoNaNa > this may or may not be something to do with what Foundry suggested might be the particularly inflammatory nature of these two signs. > I found sign in Sydney Gardens propped against a bin during 1st week (which one?). Next weekend it's gone. I think. > Still remaining to this day: > Railway Station > Police Station II > [...] > anyone found any more?
