The Art of Wheatpasting
I've been curious about the practice of posting up several movie/album/party/propoganda one sheets on various surfaces/places in the big cities. This is what I found:
The Ingredients:
-Wallpaper paste
-Elmers Glue
-Plastic bucket or container
-Course brush or roller
-Shitty Clothes
The Recipe:
-2/3 wallpaper paste
-1/3 elmers glue
-mix well and brush mixture onto surface
-put up poster and cover with wheatpaste
-try to work out the air bubbles
-then get the hell out of there
The Scoop:
It looks best to put them up in a horizontal or vertical lines.
Try not to put them up over other people's work and be
selective about where you paste them. Abandoned
buildings and construction sites are the best. Do not get caught!
