AnOther Magazine Interviews Rob Montgomery

 

"For over a decade, Robert Montgomery has adorned the streets of various capital cities with phrases such as CIVILISATIONS COME AND GO LIKE AUTUMN RAIN and WHENEVER YOU SEE THE SUN REFELECTED IN THE WINDOW OF A BUILDING IT IS AN ANGEL in an effort to engage passers-by with his emotionally-charged, and often melancholic, abstract poetry. Working in the situationist tradition, he continues to relentlessly hijack advertising spaces in order to provide a reflective space in which a public so used to being psychologically bludgeoned into a consumerist daze can find some repsite from the relentless static of the modern world."
