I suppose it's art in that it made me try to figure out what they meant when they're pretty meaningless

Art makes you feel emotions, negative and positive depending on the piece. Since you’re posting here I’d say the art did make you feel something.

Art also induces us to engage in interpretation - "meaning making."

Maybe it's a statement on Derrida's deconstructivism of language. I'd rather see something that makes me think than ads for D.U.I. lawyers

It's part of this year's Carnegie International. Some of the works are being placed in the community. You can see the exhibition at the Carnegie Museum of Art. It's fascinating.

It sounds like something you'd say about someone who just went into collections on their huge credit card debt. Like, she didn't really think all of this debt would come back to bite her and just kept spending until consequences caught up with her. I like it - a little quote that evokes a lot.

I’ll take it over some of the the crazy billboards I’ve seen up outside of Pittsburgh.

Tony Cokes is a African-American post-conceptualist artist, who specializes in mono-chromatic text slides. This installation is apart of the 58th Carnegie international held until April 2nd and also includes another work of his titled Free Britney?(about Britney Spears) This work in particular are text fragments of speeches, writings,and lyrics collected from a range of sources. Much like his other work containing billboards, he is interested in “how the context of advertising billboards could catch people’s attention and make them feel uneasy when the message they were given wasn’t clear”.
I am currently trying to research more about this piece. If you have any text or remember any of the sayings please post them.

It's an art project. I guess that inspires confusion and rage in some folks?

It's art by Tony Cokes and is an exhibit from the Carnegie Museum of Art.
My favorite is the profound "she didn't believe in credit cards."
