TRANSITIONS, INC
In the year 1992, for two days Danny Tisdale stood on a crowded street corners hawking the promotional materials of Transitions, Inc. He offered its customers the opportunity to change their appearance (look whiter) in order to get better financial success. I like this project because it is straightforward and very effective. It seems that it is a joke but I think people got the point right away.
THE PIECE PEACE
Because of the 2003 declaration of the American war with Iraq, Adelle Lutz, a costume designer and artist, created a public project designed to remind the public that the victims of the war are mostly children and women. The project consisted of woman, dancers and teachers wearing had-painted burkas and walking through selected public spaces. The paintings depicted UN statistics like "23 million people live in Iraq. Half are children". I thought this project was very powerful. People wearing burkas with paintings is very surprising and shocking.
