Think Again

THINK AGAIN is an artist-activist collaborative founded in 1997 by David John Attyah (b. Los Angeles) and S.A. Bachman (b. Columbus, Ohio.) They produce interventions that recruit art-making in the service of public address. Their work—digital murals, billboards and wallscapes, exterior projections, and viral poster campaigns –- links the global to the local and combines cultural theory, sociological research, and activism to create a visual language for engaging civic dialogue. THINK AGAIN projects have explored a unique range of issues including the logic of militarization; international labor and the treatment of immigrants; gentrification and displacement; representations of queers in the media; and the ways capitalism and misogyny conspire to jeopardize women. website: http://www.agitart.org
