Nuclear War is Bad For Kittens


And which of us is going to argue with this?  Indeed, it's almost so self-evident as to have no shock value, despite the undeniable cuteness of that small feline.  On the wall of Site Santa Fe, this is part of its ongoing Billboard Project - there are nine of these panels, made collaboratively by a collective called Artists Against the Bomb - and were produced in conjunction with Pedro Reyes' show DIRECT ACTION, which alas I missed (it closed May 8th). This is by the Center for Tactical Magic, which among other activist and strategic performist interventions (this is curiously static, for them) has since 2005 had a Tactical Ice Cream Unit, which hands out printed information produced by local activist groups, nourishes protesters, acts as a mobile surveillance device with satellite capability for transmitting footage, and, yes, gives away ice cream, as well. That is my kind of pop-up.
