ANTHONY LISTER: ART WITHOUT BOUNDARIES
In the run-up to his 2015 exhibition at New Image Art in Los Angeles, Lister turned Venice and Downtown LA into an open-air studio, covering the city with new street works that would feed directly into a major body of paintings, bronze sculptures, VR and live performance.
DT500 Zine followed the artist through this intense two-week period, capturing a practice that refused to stay inside the gallery — moving between street art, painting, sculpture, technology and performance.

Featuring voices from graffiti writer Risk, gallery owner Marsee Goldberg, director Mark Simpson and performance artist Ariel Brickman, the film offers a snapshot of an artist pushing against the boundaries of contemporary art.

A decade later, the questions feel even more relevant: where does art belong, who gets to define it, and what happens when the gallery becomes the street, the screen and the live experience?
