The conceptual art of Geoff Lupo

This is pretty funny. Geoff Lupo is a conceptual artist that creates and posts flyers all over the city advertising things of negligible value like a single pen cap, a stick of gum, or a thumb tack for sale for a nominal amount like 35 cents. It's pretty cool me thinks.

I just saw "Have you Seen this Man" on the IFC channel and I was moved by this clever, silly, and yet meaningful short film about Geoff Lupo and his minimilist art. Meeting people and conducting his quasi-business transactions like selling a cracker or a pencil sharpener. It's been a long time since I've seen anything that struck me as "New" or thought provoking especially here in Indianapolis where so much seems,well, not.
It makes me want to buy a cracker. BF

Yeah, I sort of felt the same way when I saw it. It's out of left field, in my opinion. I think it's very creative, silly, and entertaining.
