Is it art? October 05 2005
“CAS” is the acronym for “Collect Art Shit.” It’s also the name of this catfish-inspired character found on a magazine rack at the BP on Hill Street and Memorial Drive. According to the artist, who wants to remain nameless, “CAS is a real boy like Pinocchio. ... Although he is a kid, he has to deal with adult problems. ... CAS is RICH ... he rolls on dubs ... he spends his time at the CAS MONEY MILLIONAIRES CLUB. ... He likes to holla at mermaids ... he hangs out with Aquaman and SpongeBob ... they go to MJQ and love to eat at RUTH’S CHRIS and CHOPS. ... Ha ha ... nah, he does.”
