Artist attacks oil companies with ads

October 18, 2008

Artist Donny Miller is using advertising to attack oil companies, who seem  to be everyone’s enemy these days, despite the recent decline in gas prices.

Mr. Miller has created his own ads and posts them up around the gas stations belonging to oil companies. Obviously, these posters aren’t going to stay up long, but if you film them and circulate the video around, you’ve made sure your message gets noticed.

The whole pass along and share phenom with the web has given artists a whole new medium to get their ideas across to a broad cross section of the population. For the oil companies, what might have been just been tomorrow’s trash at their gas stations, becomes a little bit more of an annoyance.
