Clark Clark

Clark Clark is an American artist associated with the graffiti urban art movement. He is most known for his "VOTE" campaign for the 2008 presidential elections. He originally started the project in the mid-west swing states, but it quickly expanded nationwide. The design was an homage to the artist Robert Indiana and his Love (sculpture) artwork.

On the Fourth of July, 2010, Clark Clark's painting on a United States flag, titled"Evolve America", was censored from the "Reclaiming Space" art show at Clinton Hill Brooklyn's Gallery House. Clark was told the building owner was notified by the property manager of the painting, and the owner called his lawyer to demand it be removed. The Tau Delta Phi-Delta Gamma Theta Alumni Association, an organization for alumni of a Pratt Institute fraternity, owns the building, but gallery curator Jonathan Levy claimed he was the one to make the decision.

Clark (mascot)

Clark is the official team mascot of Major League Baseball's Chicago Cubs. He was announced on January 13, 2014 as the first official mascot in the modern history of the Cubs franchise. He was introduced that day at the Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center's pediatric developmental center along with some of the Cubs' top prospects such as number one draft pick Kris Bryant and Albert Almora, Jorge Soler, Mike Olt and Eric Jokisch. Over a dozen Cubs prospects were attending the Cubs' Rookie Development Program that week. The Cubs become the 27th team in Major League Baseball to have a mascot, leaving the Los Angeles Angels, Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees as the remaining franchises without mascots. According to the Cubs' press release, Clark is a response to fan demands (expressed via surveys and interviews) for more kid-friendly elements at Wrigley Field Cubs games to keep pace with games in other cities that have more to offer youth fans.

Description

He is a "young, friendly Cub" who will wear a backwards baseball cap and greet fans entering Wrigley Field, which is located at the corner of Clark Street (for which he is named) and Addison Street. North Clark Street borders the third base side of Wrigley Field. According to the Cubs, the fictional character Clark is descended from Joa, the franchise's original live Bears mascot in 1916.
