Critics Reviews
"...'Citizen Art/Culture Jamming' is...informative and fascinating and bound to provoke debate."
-Matt Zoller Seitz - The New York Times
"'Citizen Art--Culture Jamming' is a well-crafted and lively look at (Jersey City artist Jorge) Rodriguez's work and ideas. Rodriguez is a ready-made subject because he himself is so articulate and the work is fascinating, but the film is a well-paced and concise look."
-David Cogswell
SummaryBillboards, signs, and other forms of communication containing corporate advertising are altered into politically-charged statements by the Cicada Corps. The six-member group modifies cigarette, tobacco, and junk food ads until the message conveys subversive or politically-challenging ideas. As a result, creative vandalism transforms mundane marketing into public service messages.
