“Saski Garden (Ogród Saski) - the former king’s garden in the center of Warsaw has been open for the public since 1727. The main attraction is the group of 21 baroque sculptures - allegorical muses of human’s creativity and science. One of them was an orphan, with no allocation. I adopted her :-)”

Building on his Love Letter project in Philadelphia, Steve Powers and his crew moved on to Syracuse to transform what has been a colossal barrier between two disparate neighborhoods into a point of interest, a gathering spot, and a conversation.
Powers’ hand-painted signs draw on years of his own work as a painter and graffiti artist, but also on a long tradition of making, advertising, and handcrafting. Coming to Syracuse, a city that exemplifies the model mid-size, post-industrial rustbelt city under reinvention, is part of a national movement of change, a Rustbelt Renaissance, driven by a creative economy.
“The goal of the project is to ultimately bridge the Near Westside community to downtown, which will give access to new markets and resources for residents in the neighborhood,” says Maarten Jacobs, director of the Near Westside Initiative.

‘Our Christmas action: ‘Shopping with Santa Claus’.
Through our nighttime intervention, we want to remind you that in Madrid, the number of people that eat and live from what they find in the garbage containers has grown in an alarming manner since the beginning of the crisis, in spite of the fact that City Hall, completely against these practices, decided in 2009 to punish anyone caught in the act with a fine of up to 700 euros.’
I can’t get enough of Luzinterruptus.
