Rory Macbeth



OK, I guess I've been living under a rock because Macbeth has already been recognized by the Tate.

Anyway, Macbeth has some great ideas. Above is a picture of his work on the former Eastern Electricity building in Norwich. He's "painting" Sir Thomas Moore's book Utopia on a building that was set to be demolished.



He was also highlighted in the spring issue of Intersection for spray painting abandoned vehicles. He's quoted as saying, "I'm interested in the fact that they're ephemeral, temporary monuments."

Genius.
