Look Up, Art Hoe

The List Art Center staircase is known around campus as the artistic vomit of VISA kids -- or, as the staircase loudly states, “art hoes.” After wandering up and down the stairs like an aimless freshie, I found some sketches, words, and professional art that I think we should all take a closer look at.My favorite thing to do is try to guess who contributed each piece of art. Sometimes it’s not hard:Thank you, Adam.Other times you can only guess the artist’s concentration:I would hazard a safe guess that a CS concentrator did this. The color is the same as their vomit after chugging Soylent, because it’s the trendy thing to not chew your food in the CIT.The staircase is also a great place to find pick-up lines, like the inspired “You are my favorite pre-corpse."I recommend this line for PLMEs or med students who are currently doing their human dissections. Delivery is key, though. Make sure you’re wrapped in stolen toilet paper from Grad Center (we see you, off-campus seniors) and look like a zombie with a Soylent Green tint.Personally, my favorite mark of List is the naked feminine figure on the fire-breathing dragon that is covered with the words “I give zero fucks.”If we had to guess who created this, I would say it’s the senior girl from the following meme:Lastly, for this installment of “Look Up, Art Hoe,"  there is actual hidden professional art in the stairwell. Two Chilean graffiti/mural artists visited Brown during Spring of 2018 and painted murals on a large canvas in front of Granoff for everyone to watch. These artists also left their tag in List. See if you can find it! Below is the tag and work of "FRANK" Verdugo Navea.    Stay tuned for more analysis of our community's art vomit! And the next time you're in List, remember to look up, art hoe. Images via Jillian Hojsak '19, via Nicole Kim '19, and via.
