On the morning of May 14, 2011 I encountered this artwork outside my apartment. At the time it struck me as being a humorous, ironic and ominous statement of where things were heading: on the verge of Occupy Wall Street, prior to the ramp-up of political campaigns, and at the cusp of the United States debt-ceiling debate. Early in the first week of January 2012 it felt like the right time to present it in the gallery, thus Specific Object now presents I've Seen the Future & It Doesn't Look Good.
