Interview with Clark Whittington, Founder of Art-mat
On the show, we have the pleasure of talking to Clark Whittington the Founder of Art-o-mat. Art-o-mat restores vintage cigarette machines that sell original art for $5 to $7. The machines are a work of art in their own right! “Art-o-mat is based on the concept of taking art and ‘repackaging’ it to make it part of our daily lives” (artomat.org). Art-o-mat features miniature works of art (paintings, sculputures, photography, etc.) from over 400 artists worldwide.
