This year Art for After Hours created a special public art piece designed to specifically call attention to the children of people seeking asylum in the United States.
We have personally and socially found the specific treatment of the children being separated from the parents and families especially horrific and a shame upon the United States similar to the Interments of Japanese, Italian, and German Americans in camps during the Second World War.
#Respect #Resist #Remember

Each child is holding part of a mylar blanket issued to keep them warm, draped over a landscape at the Rio Grande between Mexico and the United States separated from freedom by prison bars.
Beyond the prison bars is a Trump Wall free world with freedom and fairness for all, typically the policy of our Nation of Immigrants.

Prior to our live 3D street painting project, we were developing a 4D animated augmented reality component positioning animated children holding placards of #Respect and #Remember while an ICE guard was programmed to walk menacingly at the base of the art.
This was a moving piece for us and for the Baltimore community. Despite a weekend of inclement weather, sometimes part of live outdoor work; we were proud to share this artistic statement. #Respect #Remember

Happy New Year to Business of Street Painting readers!
Our first 3D street painting of 2018, 'Fire Snake in Glass Blocks' for Entrepreneurs' Organization New York.
The piece was done in a few hours in chalk for the family event on the West Side of Manhattan in the Hudson Yards area.
We were turbo charged to share the 3D piece with many young attendees receiving a positive message of achieving the goals and dreams in a fun, family setting.
I am listed as part of the Expo Activities -
Like the ongoing development in the area, Art for After Hours looks forward to creating our 3D and 4D concepts using augmented, virtual, and mixed reality for clients in tradeshows, launches and events - large and small.

Happy 2018 Everyone!
With a new year underway, we look back at the 2017 3D and 4D pieces by internationally recognized artist Anthony Cappetto created around the US and around the world.
The art was fun to design, to create, and we look forward to more 3D art for our clients, returning and new.
New York Build: Javits Center, NYC
Inspired by the iconic 'Lunch Atop a Skyscraper', we created the steel beam hovering over Manhattan at a Building Tradeshow.
'Collapsing Ramp' Garden Grove, CA: A 3D chalk art piece tying in augmented reality (4D) seen through an onsite monitor. We used digital models of robots and fluttering flags of our client to bring human interaction (me on bicycle), the 3D hand drawn chalk art, and the augmented reality animation.
Sunflowers and dragonflies in Battery Park, NYC: A street art installation for an event for Battery Park City Parks in June.
'Freedom' Baltimore, MD: A social and political statement made to address the current atmosphere in the US with the concept of butterflies escaping oppression in any of its forms in September.
'Betta Fish Kite' Crewe, England, United Kingdom: Expressing the beauty and conceptuality of a fish kite hovering over the countryside at a festival in the UK last August.
'A Puzzling Reality' Tizarte Event in Antwerp, Belgium: A 3D street art piece using a purposely fading motif of a puzzle fading away to 'reality' and objects such as the sunflowers fading from higher resolution to simpler resolution. Our dragonflies were designed consistently at the same level across the piece to overlay/tie in the fadeaway concept.
' Refugee: Here but Not Here...': A serious piece address the issue of refugee children throughout the world, although we focused on Syria, South Sudan, and Myanmar. The child in an atmosphere of desolation enjoys a respite blowing bubbles (given to her by an aid worker) evanescent, temporal just as we feel for the child's plight but move on quickly - Here but Not Here...
LIC Beer Festival, Long Island City NYC: A sunny Fall day brought us to create this entertaining design with pumpkins, pretzels, and of course - beer!
This was a fun year with the art experimenting with tying in animated augmented reality, conceptual ideas, sociopolitical messages, and interacting with our public in the US and abroad.
A special thanks to Wendy Stum who assisted and collaborated with me on some of the pieces especially 'Freedom' and ' Refugee: Here but Not Here...'.

Hello to our viewers.
This 3D installation recently completed takes a serious turn to show 3D street art's ability to bring a message to its viewers.
Art for After Hours 3D street artist Anthony Cappetto with Wendy Stum created the art at the Sarasota Chalk Festival in Venice, Florida this year as we have been regular participants since 2011 with many 3D exhibition works. This one was more important to us in its message and delivery.
This is a video clip we did during the event in which Cappetto is blowing bubbles in solidarity with our refugee girl whom an aid worker had given a bottle of soap bubbles to entertain her for a few moments, taking her away from her stark conditions around her.
‘Refugee’: Here, but Not Here… Anthony Cappetto with Wendy Stum
In the spirit of the Sarasota Chalk Festival’s 2017 theme of Evanescence, we present the story of a refugee child. Amidst the rubble and desolation of a stop on her journey, she blows bubbles representing some of the nations with the most dramatic refugee crises. We selected South Sudan, Syria, and Myanmar (Burma). As a child, enjoying for the briefest of moments - a chance to be a child while sharing a message with the viewers. We hear and read about refugees’ plights, but our thoughts move past them as we put down the information and move on with our lives.
They are ‘here, but not here’.

We've had a summer (and early Fall), series of 3D street art that has taken us back and forth from UK and Europe, to express a timely statement, and finally to bring 3D chalk art as local entertainment in our home base here in New York City.
This is the story-
Battery Park in New York City...

What a fun weekend for 3D chalk art - especially when you are doing a piece for the hometown crowd!
Did a 3D piece for the Queens Beer Festival at the LIC Flea & Food space in Long Island City, NY for a family based crowd over a two day period.
Let's see how the 3D came together!
With the backdrop of Manhattan as seen from Long Island City, we were set up and ready to start on a beautiful Fall day...
A 3D chalk art project from Anthony Cappetto and Art for After Hours starts with a concept sketch. We create our own designs working with our clients to meet their needs and goals for events and projects.
Starting the chalk layout on the pavement-
From sketching to rendering in chalk- Detail at Pumpkins...
Working on the pretzel-
Just as we completed on Sunday Afternoon-

A reverse view of the anamorphic illusion showing the way how the art is to be drawn to see the 3D illusion properly through your camera, tablet, or lens.
At the end of the festival, we got one last picture in of the completed 3D chalk art piece. It was a great weekend with families, food, and fun... Imagine your next 3D chalk art in food, drink, and entertainment. Discuss your project with Anthony Cappetto at Art for After Hours.

I had the pleasure this month to be invited to participate in 'Part of Antwerp', an international art festival as one of a group of top street artists creating 3D street painting at indoor and outdoor locations along the Port of Antwerp. I was the sole American artist participating at the Festival. This is my 3D street art piece - 'A Puzzling Reality...'.
This piece in its concept uses a motif of fading imagery and approach starting with the puzzle itself. Viewers noticed a puzzle piece that had fallen out of the vertical panel which is actually the 'real' of the group of sunflowers in a field with dragon flies under a blue sky with clouds.
The puzzle piece at left falls onto the puzzle on the ground area in front of the vertical while I pick up another piece to put into place.
The puzzle itself fades away into reality in a similar way to different drawn aspects of the art themselves fading from completion such as the sunflowers, leaves in higher detail radiating from the seed centers to the grass at the bottom front of the 3D illusion. The dragon flies, drawn from the standpoint of a graphic complete the connection of the art as a cohesive 3D anamorphic illusion by Cappetto.
Anthony Cappetto (pictured) with his 3D Street Art piece - "A Puzzling Reality..."
Along with many of the top 3D street artists in Europe, I had the privilege of doing my 3D street art piece. Pictured with his 3D installation is renowned street artist Gregor Wosik. I am interviewed about my work at the beginning and end of this video showing the works of many of the fine artists participating in the festival.
Here I am working on my piece, making sure that the last puzzle pieces are in place... :D
Thank you to my hosts, Part of Antwerp, the Add More Colors Agency, Nele, and the full team who made our artist experience exciting, fun, and fulfilling!
