Blindspot Galleries hosts mobile 
art exhibits using print technology and magnetic vinyl.
Temporary art pieces begin as a magnetic collection stuck to Blindspot's 
artistic hub, a white Ford minivan. As the car travels, the work is dispersed 
through visual exposure and the transient quality of the magnets. Though 
it's not overtly publicized, the work is not bound to Blindspot. Free for 
the taking, the interaction between creator and collector facilitates the 
plural nature of "Blindspot Galleries."
Blindspot's 
home base is in St. Louis, Missouri.

BACKGROUND
A note about printmaking and public art:
Prints have always functioned in the spaces of everyday 
life. The social role of the print throughout history has been that of 
the entertainer and the teacher, whether it be in the form of religious 
icons, playing cards, reproductions, posters, newspapers, or advertisements. 
Blindspot Galleries draws from this history and context to show work that 
is very direct, that bypasses art world obstacles to having the work seen, 
that is altruistic and humanitarian, and that capitalizes on the nature 
of the print as a multiple.

A note about Lisa 
Bulawsky, the Director of Blindspot Galleries:  
Lisa Bulawsky is an artist and Assistant Professor of 
Printmaking and Drawing at Washington University, School of Art in St. 
Louis. Her works on paper have been exhibited nationally, won many awards, 
and are in numerous collections. She is the founder of Vertigo Press, 
an umbrella organization for carrying out a variety of public art projects 
and interventions. In September of 2000, Lisa worked locally in St. Louis 
with Arts in Transit and the students in her Elective Printmaking class 
to produce an oversized woodcut that was printed by a Bi-State bus. The 
ink on the woodcut was transferred to magnetic vinyl by the pressure of 
the bus passing over it. The print then hung in the ad space on the side 
of the bus. This event, Making Connections, and the 2002 Vertigo Press 
public project, (p)alms, also a magnetic print exhibition, were the forerunners 
for the inc
