In Paris I was taken with the work of street artist Space Invader (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Invader), whose colourful mosaics are dotted around the city, and contrast nicely with the old architecture of the city.
This was spotted outside Berg's office near Old Street in London - no idea if it's an original or a copy, but it's playful and adds a spark of fun to its surroundings, which is all that really matters.
At a bus station in the back streets. I've got at least another 2 to capture. There's another one in one of the backstreets near the Piccadilly Gardens end of Oldham St. I think, but it seems to have been defaced a bit. There used to be another in a back street near Chinatown which I'm having difficulty finding again.
This is not photoshopped! This is a radar warning board, usually showing 50 as the speed limit to remind drivers. It was crashed, or perhaps someone was playing Space Invaders on it....
It was Paul, the Wine Guy and his fabulous "IT Everywhere" series who made me open my eyes to see the world like this! Grazie!
I took this just because I was amused to see a space invader in Paris. But I now think this is a piece of public art from an artist that goes by the name Invader. www.space-invaders.com/index2.html
