DrTuTu/ Guilty of ART!// is a concept that incorporates & elaborates on a body of work from Weston Frizzell & led by Mike Weston with ARTIVIST : creative selected artists & creatives as a media installation & series of actions that together make a symposium surrounding an exhibition event.
DrTuTu/ Guilty of ART!// is essentially providing a platform with specific artists & creatives to make & demonstrate a reference; Weston & ARTIVIST have developed a frame that questions the statement of intent in the Weston Frizzell Dr TuTu exhibition.
Weston Frizzell importune the genre of Pop Art & Culture in a classic fashion of youth rebellion, skateboarding & surf culture, urban art & graffiti, hip hop & punk against a background of protest, conflict, politics & social commentary, wit & humour.
The genre & content is suitable for guerilla marketing & street advertising & is both pertinent in subject & fashionable... the success of the event is based on the quality & celebrity of Weston Frizzell with prominent & consummate collaborators...Jos Wheeler is such a collaborator in his ability to compile & provide personally created content, documentation & documentary.
His moving & still images span an understanding of the DrTuTu subject that is moving & intimate.The plan & content involved in Dr TuTu/ Guilty of ART!// build on a concept developed organically, purposefully & historically... with current & pertinent messages to convey:
• 'Who Are The Real Terrorists' was a track laid down in 2003 & other audio & media of Dr TuTu have been recorded, produced & developed over several years;
• Mike Weston has been an associate of Tame Iti since 2001 & Otis Frizzell has known Tame for several years;
• Dr TuTu is developed content with a context that has exhibited previously;•relevent content & media exist in Weston Frizzell & other private & public archive;
• ARTIVIST has had an association with Tame & others in the Urewera group for 20 years in protest action & art;
• ARTIVIST : creative by any means necessary! with Melbourne based street artist HaHa started to attribute street art works with a theme of 'watch that space/ Guilty of ART!//'
• ARTIVIST has proposed a brief to various selected potential artistic & creative contributors with positive response;• the works & issues have been in development for several years through the Urewera raids & before;
• Jos Wheller (DOP & photographer) has been visually documenting action & event around Tame for several years;
• street art by Ha Ha depicting Tame Iti has been installed as paste up & stencil graffiti in Auckland, Hamilton, Taupo, Wellington, Sydney, Melbourne, London, Paris, Lyon & other locations;
• the exhibition involves a street element that has an ethic developed in illegal action; the Weston Frizzell installation is the "legal" aspect that states the intent;
• 'Street Art' is now the largest genre of art in the world & suits a pop up lead to an exhibition;
• the 'Weston Frizzell' fan movement has a broad demographic & relates well to the intended audience of 'Dr TuTu/ Guilty of ART!//'.
