PUBLIC MARKS with tag humor

Splash. Play. Enjoy the sand and surf. You won't get eaten by a shark. Probably. Good enough for me.

The rain falls softly. The samurai draws his sword. Look, an umbrella. Either we just made it up, or that Haiku dates to around the 14th century. It is a little known fact that Samurai also carried umbrellas. Much as they later had to disguise their swords as canes, so they disguised their umbrellas as swords. In fact, there was one skilled umbrella maker who all the Samurai relied on for their Sword Handle Umbrellas. His name has been buried in the sands of time, but his plans have been preserved. And now, it is with great pleasure that we offer to you, the Samurai Sword Handle Umbrella.

“A l’heure de la rédaction de ce mémoire, je constate un rapport extrêmement inégal entre l’amplitude que prend, dans nos études de design graphique, la notion de “graphisme d’auteur” et sa place réelle dans la pratique de ce métier. Je mesure également la distance qui distingue le monde des auteurs, monde savant regardant tantôt avec dédain, tantôt avec amusement les autres formes de graphisme, et celui des amateurs, ignorant presque tout du graphisme et à fortiori du graphisme d’auteur. J’ai par conséquent eu la volonté de me dégager de la vision unilatérale que me propose (malgré lui) l’enseignement en communication visuelle en étudiant le graphisme le plus opposé au graphisme d’auteur: le graphisme amateur. ”

We're a bunch of anonymous females who take the names of dead women artists as pseudonyms and appear in public wearing gorilla masks. We have produced posters, stickers, books, printed projects, and actions that expose sexism and racism in politics, the art world, film and the culture at large. We use humor to convey information, provoke discussion, and show that feminists can be funny. We wear gorilla masks to focus on the issues rather than our personalities. Dubbing ourselves the conscience of culture, we declare ourselves feminist counterparts to the mostly male tradition of anonymous do-gooders like Robin Hood, Batman, and the Lone Ranger. Our work has been passed around the world by kindred spirits who we are proud to have as supporters. It has also appeared in The New York Times, The Nation, Bitch and Bust; on TV and radio, including NPR,, the BBC and CBC; and in countless art and feminist texts. The mystery surrounding our identities has attracted attention. We could be anyone; we are everywhere.
