| Boston calls their program PaintBox, and San Jose’s is Art Box. Los Angeles also has one and it's also dedicated to neighborhood identity. One series used boxes near a forgotten downtown site that was once called Indian Alley. That prompted me to consider how this civic program works as urban totems, a variant of carved storytelling that builds social kinship through emblematic references without having to expand into spiritual doctrine. Instead of a tree trunk, the urban totem is a metal box (sculpture that’s forbidden territory) that is personalized with paint. It embeds the artist in the larger social group of neighborhood. |
