There is an activist artist group in New York that is led by Jordan Seiler, which is acting against the domination of commercial ads covering the public sphere like skin. The group is constantly white washing ads and drawing their own art on them.

The companies are constantly coming back and replacing the transformed ads with new ones. I have been posting on this project before. Now, The New York Times is involved in the action.
