About Art Is Trash

The video from 2023-06-07 documents another work by Francisco de Pájaro, better known as Art Is Trash. Since 2009 he has turned rubbish left on the pavement – boxes, bags, mattresses, old furniture – into wild, comic figures painted on the spot. His figures poke fun at throwaway culture, power and the established art world. That makes every figure a one-off: once the street is cleaned, it is gone, and often only videos like this one remain.
