Hi all,
Just came across this link and I thought I'd share:

Here's some more information, copied from their website:
 
                         
 <At the forefront of a new breed of urban intervention, Cutup have 
rethought traditional methods of making a statement through the 
subversion of the visual landscape of the city. CutUp's billboard 
images are created by slicing up adverts and collaging the pieces 
into a newly ordered image. They challenge the invasion of 
advertising into every aspect of life and show the effects of 
the "spectacular society". In the words of Jelly Helm (Vice-
President - The Martin Agency, ex-creative director - Weiden & 
Kennedy), "When you build a system [advertising] on a foundation of 
desire, dissatisfaction, envy and inadequacy, people buy things, 
yes, but it's no surprise that it happens at the expense of some 
damage to the psyche." The effect is overwhelming and confusing, the 
billboards transformed from commercial message bearers into public 
talking points. >

best, Annie - the Netherlands
