It is with a heavy heart that we announce that William Walker, the co-founder of CPAG and the founder of the community street-mural movement has passed. He was 85. The art world and communities around the world will forever be grateful to Mr. Walker for his contributions.
Our friend Lee Bay has written a wonderful piece on Mr. Walker, and calls on all of us to save on his few remaining murals- All of Mankind near Cabrini Green.
The Sun Times also has a lovely piece, as does the Chicago Tribune.
We are saddened by this tremendous loss.
