Video: A Rooftop Tennis Court-I like the 'Urban Interventions' of Arno Piroud!

Again: Seeing your city with different, new eyes is what fascinates me so much about art, "out-of-the-gallery".

Streetart find: Penis in St. Petersburg

“We have painted a giant phallus to show what the FSB and Interior Ministry are doing in terms of security for the forum

What I love most about streetart is how the context adds meaning. Without the bridge this would just be a more or less boring, stupid piece of vandalism - the "where" makes the piece to what it is.

Streetart Find: "Tanta policía para poca gente."

Luzinterruptus, “Tanta Policía, para tan Poca Gente…” (“A Lot of Policeman for So Few People…”); Madrid

(Above.) In protest of the number of police flooding the Malasaña district of Madrid, the local street artist  collective Luzinterruptus decided to make it clear that the police had no reason to be paranoid. Adding homemade replicas of blue sirens to 50 cars in the neighborhood made it clear that the police presence was already sufficient.

How little things can send such a message. That's why I love streetart.
