The Free Arts Movement is a loosely banded artist's collective, seeking to circumvent the gallery and sales process. A few years ago, artists tired of the political and monetary machine governing the art world, and began placing their work around cities (often on Fridays, see #FreeArtFriday) to be found by a passerby with the right set of eyes. It was and is an attempt to wrestle art away from money, and to give it to all people, directly into someone's possession to enjoy. It has since turned into a worldwide movement, involving artist communities in almost every major city all over the world.
