It is proposed that the artwork be A series of works, will be attached to the existing light posts from Flinders Street to the building at 25 Pirie Street.

Hadden we even gemist tussen het vieren van onze vrijheid, die niet vanzelfsprekend is, door, maar in Amsterdam is sinds vorige week eindelijk het langverwachte verbod op reclames voor vlees, vliegreizen, auto's die geen elektrische auto's zijn en alle andere leuke dingen ingegaan. En daarmee staan we als gidslandje toch een potje lekker op de internationale kaart. Want we kunnen in Nederland niet alleen investeringen in startups de moeder belasten, we kunnen het ook illegaal maken om een poster van een broodje worst op te hangen. New York Times van de leg, BBC in rep en en roer en uiteraard blaast ook FOX News een partijtje mee. Maar wat blijkt? Het is alleen maar zodat raadslid Anneke Veenhoff (deze gek) zich een beetje internationaal kan profileren. In de praktijk komt er van het verbod namelijk helemaal niks terecht. "Vleesreclame en fossiele aanprijzingen zijn nu verboden in de algemene plaatselijke verordening (apv), een rigoureus middel. De wethouder had het liever via de contracten met aanbieders van buitenreclame geregeld. Bovendien was er in het voorstel geen dekking opgenomen voor de uitvoering en handhaving. (...) In heel 2026 zal er daarom geen handhaving zijn." Zin in bier op een door de gemeente verboden terras nu.

The shapes of Maxwell Mustardo’s ceramic works evoke ancient amphorae, kraters, and, most recently, kylix—a wide Greek cup with handles—although their surfaces feel distinctly organic. Textured growths cloak the vessels with fungal or lichen-esque forms, albeit in color palettes that are bold and otherworldly. Fluorescent oranges, pinks, and greens appear to glow in even the most mundane settings, firmly planting the pieces at the intersection of historic craft, nature, and the uncanny.
“I am always tweaking chemistry and application methods to push certain surface effects that I like, that feel organic and grown,” Mustardo tells Colossal. “More recent series of work have tried to blur the boundaries of cultural and natural forms (the amphora becomes anthropomorphic, gadrooning reduced to its fruity lineage, and so forth).”

An ornamental design with curved bands, gadrooning is typically relegated to surface decoration. As the artist mentions, though, he prefers to cast these tapered adornments as the central focus, “promptly pushing classical ornament back into their origins in the natural world, from the kingdom of fruits and vegetables.”
Mustardo is based in New Jersey, where he’s the studio manager of the former residence of artist Toshiko Takaezu (1922-2011). Find more of his work on Instagram.
