Urban Art Series - Fini

Today ends the Urban Art Series, for a while. When I return to Paris next month, I will be searching for many more! Today, le photographe and I snap each other!

L'artiste - Jef Aérosol

When I shot this a few years ago, I didn't even realize that Jef Aérosol loves les chats noirs!  Even more reason to like his fun stenciled art around Paris.

Paris Rouge XV - Speedy!

While I abhor the tagging that is ruining many buildings in Paris ( and everywhere else), I do enjoy some of the urban art. Speedy Graphito's work is colorful and graphic. Some of it reminds me of Keith Haring, one of my favorite artists. I found this piece on rue Arbalète, off rue Mouffetard, last summer. This is also the place to see a lot of Jef Aérosol's and Mesnager's street art as well. If you wish to see more examples of these artists, jump on over to Peter's blog here and here. He was nice enough to even furnish me with the links, so I didn't have to wear myself out searching his blog for them. I have no shame!!
