In 1988, David Hammons commented that ‘outrageously magical things happen when you mess around with a symbol.’ An artist who recognised the symbology of materials like no other, David is most known for his work in street ephemera, such as basketballs, hair from barbershops, tarpaulins and Thunderbird bottles. In 2007, however, he decided to present an uptown gallery with a cohort of fur coats, defaced on their backs – a striking departure for an artist who had aligned himself with arte povera. I

David Hammons: One Dollar Snowballs and a Masterclass in Storytelling In 1983, artist David Hammons stood quietly among street vendors in New York’s Cooper Square and sold snowballs for $1 each. No signs. No explanation. No spectacle. Arranged carefully by size, the snowballs were fragile, temporary, and guaranteed to disappear. Hammons wasn’t selling an object — he was selling a moment. A question. The absurdity of assigning value to something destined to melt away. Photographed by Dawoud Bey a

Elizabeth Markevitch on Instagram: "One winter morning in 1983, David Hammons sold snowballs on the streets of New York. That was it. That was the artwork. They melted. They disappeared. And yet the piece is still talked about today. Bliz-aard Ball Sale wasn’t about snow. It was about time. Presence. And how easily value slips through our fingers. Some art isn’t meant to last. It’s meant to be felt, briefly, quietly, fully. This is the kind of story that reminds us why slowing down matters. Why
