520 |a "Throughout his decades long career, Witz has drawn on his understanding of historical underpinnings and current forces in the cultural world - minimalism, the punk scene, and modernist rejection strategies, such as those of DuChamp and John Cage. Witz brings a fierce energy and surprising subtlety to his art, working within the worlds of both street art and high art, while always revolving around a vibrant interplay with New York City itself. Witz's subversive humor thrives in surprising reactions against the art establishment - from his first street art spectacle in the late 1970's of over forty hovering delicate street art hummingbirds that Witz dubbed "anti-hip", to trompe l'oeil shrines to the victims of September 11th on the bases of light poles in New York City, to the painting of light itself."--dust jacket.
