Some more
street art examples, photos taken here and there, now and then, and which I
believe I have not already published.
Let’s first
remember that this type of art is often ephemeral. Here are first two photos of the
same wall, taken with a few weeks’ interval.
Some people
are not too happy to see some blind walls covered like this. Let’s then
remember that today it’s mostly done with the approval by people who live there
and often is supported by local authorities…. and that a few decades ago these
walls were already covered – by publicity.

Paris devient petit a petit la ville du street art. superbes creations
I never cease to find this fascinating -- particularly the ephemeral nature of it. I don't remember if you saw my post about Rick's son's art -- he works in chalk, and that's seriously ephemeral -- one smudge and it's messed up! (At least you have to WORK to paint over a wall!). I admire the fact that people are just out there, making art, taking the chance it will last long enough to be seen by someone.
On peut reprocher la même chose au street à et à la publicité, c'est de s'imposer à tous de manière assez agressive. L'envahissement de l'espace public par certains - le street art mais aussi les terrasses de café, la pub, etc - est une restriction de la liberté des autres.
I disagree that art is an imposition. And I sometimes am overwhelmed by the talent of these people!
Creative art mural, I like a lot the giraffe, the bike and the first composition!

Parfois cela peut devenir encombrant mais cela permet de découvrir ce qui intéresse les autres et finit parfois par nous intéresser nous-mêmes. On finit même par en reconnaître les auteurs à force de les voir.
These are wonderful, Peter! I especially like the tall stark tree with the bird's nest on top.

Hi Peter ,Well I will support the artists, I think it super that it all being done with support form the local authorities and the people who live there ,, well done to all.. so great to see such ART!!
I recognize quite a few of these pieces! What a nice and colourful collection!
Je trouve dommage que des graffitis recouvrent des ghost signs, ces publicités des temps jadis qui s'effacent peu à peu et dont tu donnes exemples à la fin de ton message... Il me semble que lorsque j'ai commencé à blogguer il y a sept ans il n'y avait pas autant de ces démonstrations de "créativité", qu'il fallait vraiment les chercher, à présent il y en a partout, cela fait partie du paysage urbain... ou rural....
Bonjour cher Peter,
Mon ami Léo ne serait pas mécontent de rencontrer ce bel aras qui trône sur cette façade !...
Les murs "s'artistiquent" dans l'ombre...
Gros bisous
This is quite an array of street art. Every so often some of these pieces last a while. I actually recognize some of these pieces and it's been more than a year since I was in Paris. The amount of talent your photos show us is staggering. Thanks for the exhibition.
