Giant monochrome animals are his thing.
Back in 2009, German artists Simon Jung and Paul & Hanno Schweizer painted what has become known as the ‘Goldfinch of Scampia’ on the side of a semi-derelict building in Naples.
When they finished, they took a rather excellent group photo.

Call Parade – an ongoing public art project on the streets of São Paulo in Brazil gives 100 artists a free hand to transform the hooded payphone booths of the city into whatever they see fit. The photos above were taken by Brazilian photographer Marianne Borgomani who sez:
When I lived in Sao Paulo every phone booth (whenever I needed one) were either completely useless or just vandalized. When VIVO (phone carrier) took over the Spanish Telefonica they came up with the Call Parade Project and yesterday I was in awe: when art interacts with people, people respect it. As a result, neat and functional phone booths.
Sure you’d nearly ditch the mobile on the strength of it.
All 100 designs can be viewed here.

With police busy arresting street artists and banning them from London 2012 Olympic venues, two new pieces from Banksy are under threat of power-washing.
They’ve already banned chips. Art means nothing to these people.
