Remember that piece of art on the sidewalk outside of the New Museum earlier this month? As it turns out, it had nothing to do with the plea on the banner hanging from the establishment at the same time. It was a piece by Stephen Cavanagh, who began painting while working in David Bouley's bakery, only now to find himself in that familiar predicament of being an artist who hates the art world. He recently had 20 free ideas for Damien Hirst (the king of that kingdom of overpriced hype), and told us "my aim is simple: to make art public."
