Why I give away my paintings

 Posted by: MarkMalmgren on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 18:05
I started painting simple watercolors in June of 2001. Since then, I have given away:4316 in NYC, one for each victim of the Twin Towers disaster. 189 in Washington for each victim of the Pentagon tragedy.93 in Pennsylvania for the victims of Flight 93. 300 in NYC at the Free BiennialAnd now I am giving away 930, 10 per day at the 93 days of the Manifesta. Free Manifesta

Why?
1. I don't need the money.












2. People seem to like them.












3. It gives me something to do.












4. I have a very complex "day" job and the simplicity of the watercolors counterbalances that.












5. Why not.

93 days of manifesta equals 93 victims of 93?
Nice number mystics.
