A HOME FOR THE PRESERVATION AND EXHIBIT OF STREET ARTS
MISA will be a not-for-profit, 501(c)3 Museum featuring
International Street artists such as Banksy ,
D*Face, Cease , Swoon , Twist , Revs , 108 , Ellis
Gallagher , Neck
face and Os
Gemeos who have earned international attention for their work and in
turn migrated the showing of their works to the museum or gallery setting
as well as the street. It is also not uncommon for street artists to achieve
commercial success Shepard
Fairey , Faile ,
along with WK (Interact, Kaws and Buff monster) doing graphics for other
companies or starting their own merchandising lines. The universal theme
in most, if not all Street Art, is that adapting visual artwork into
a format which utilizes public space, allows artists who may otherwise
feel disenfranchised, to reach a much broader audience than traditional
artwork and galleries normally allow. Over all this museum will feature
all aspects of Urban art and not only is a learning ground for a wide
demographic and age range but a way to keep those urban artists off
the streets, in a productive place and making money off a medium that
otherwise could land them doing so illegally winding up with a low
life and possibly end in jail. We will achieve this through an arrangement
between the school, creative spaces and artists’ studios, where the art will be made. Art will then be
taken through our auction house during the day, which at night doubles
as a theater for film debuts or stage plays. Between fundraising events,
tourists and special galas these auctions will be the highlight of these
events resulting in the artists not only learning the process but also
developing them into professionals, earning them a name in the art world
creating demand for their art, which will also be kept in the museum. Students
and artists will follow each step of the process from the creation of their
art to how it is sold on the market place. Between worldwide infamous
artists and our own collective the museum will be covered in a vast variety
of art on display and for sale in many forms.

A YOUTH DEVELOPMENT ORGANIZATION TO TEACH ART WORLD BUSINESS
The ART INCUBATOR will be a not-for-profit, 501(c)3
outreach initiative housed within the MISA center. This organization
will provide low-cost, high-quality arts education and public art programs
and a museum that showcases international Street Art – and we believe
this medium needs a home off the streets. We will serve more than 5,000
youth and adult students per year with hands-on art making experiences
in painting & drawing,
film production/business, music production/business, ceramics, installations,
stencils, fibers, printmaking, silk screening, photography, metalsmithing,
glass, and more. These arts will not only be taught but our main goal
will to be to teach artists lost on the streets and ruining their lives
a way to not only make art but show it, sell it and make a life out of
the medium. As just one example, note the Bronx-based group Tats Cru,
whose members began as a subway graffiti crew, but whose work covers
traditional neighborhood memorial walls, public schools, hospitals, and
representation at the Smithsonian Institute's 35th Folk Arts Festival,
and also logo and advertising design for such corporations as Snapple
and McDonald's. Some of their work can be found on their website, www.tatscru.com.
Traditional graffiti also has increasingly been adopted as a method for
advertising; its trajectory has even in some cases led to its artists'
working on contract as graphic artists for corporations. As such, we
are making art and expression more available, especially to groups who
often lack a voice in our society whose only choice is to take their
art to the streets and cause destruction to property. We will provide
low cost and free arts education to groups and communities in need, and
we believe all communities need art. This will allow not only the Non-Profit
to raise money but also a faucet for artists to make money off their
medium installing values of pride and ownership. Along with a prospective
outlet to achieve higher then streets status which shows in most demographics
to bring such artists out of criminal acts of illegal art and such crime
with initiatives and rules set as in no art will be displayed by anyone
without at least one year of a clean record from crime and graffiti andstudents
will have achidemic standards to keep at school.
