Dear Friends,

Thank you for your support. For all of you that were not physically at the parade on Sunday, I hope you had the chance to see some footage on line or some of the press. It has been an amazing collective experience. Another break through for West of Rome toward a new definition of public art. Trespass parade !  

please help us in this final push!! 

We have some updates on 1,000$ pledge 

when Rirkrit was here we perfected the idea of the edition and we are about to go in production.

"A Voyage of Growth and Discovery" with Baby IKKI!

Update #11 · Sep 21, 2011 · comment

Check it!  For only a $25 donation, you get the reward of “A Voyage of Growth and Discovery” poster from the landmark exhibition by Mike Kelley and Michael Smith and a digital portrait of Arto Lindsay or Rirkrit Tiravanija specially dedicated to YOU! 

"A Voyage of Growth and Discovery" centers on Baby IKKI, a character that artist Michael Smith has been performing for over thirty years. Pre-lingual and of ambiguous age, Baby IKKI is both comedic and melancholy. The project was a collaboration between Mike Kelley and Michael Smith and produced by West of Rome.
