One of my other favorite films from the Illegal Art Exhibit was Phil Patiris’ “Iraq Campaign 1991,” a genius bit of agitprop he created in 1992 using TV footage of the first Gulf War. It was especially a hit at lefty media conferences. I wanted to put this up on the Illegal Art site back in the day, so I’m psyched to see that it has finally made its way online. Enjoy.
