What is street art and does it have value for us as a society? What makes street art unique compared to other forms of art? Brooklyn street artist, Blanco, touches on these questions and gives us a look at his own practice as a form of social activism in the streets. Blanco is white. Blanco is a color. Blanco is Spanish. Blanco is American. While Blanco, the man, may not represent all of these things, through his art he hopes to challenge people’s perspectives and create space for dialogue. Blanco is a street artist who lives in Brooklyn, New York and has been putting up pieces across the city and elsewhere for over ten years. Blanco invites his friends to be models and collaborators and together they create pieces that seek to highlight social justice issues and question the status quo. During his 9-5, Blanco works at a museum to promote the work and experiences of native artists. He has also worked as an archaeologist, teacher, and bagel baker. Above everything, he values community and hopes to continuing learning and growing through his relationships. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
