PARIS 2e

"Infotainment? What the hell are you talking about?"


Paris Street Art

Another downtown Paris walk always provides you with some fresh street art.
Keep an eye out when you walk around. Sometimes a familiar spot changes its wheatpasting paperposters numerous times a week.
Some street artists see urban space as a format for personal artwork, others appreciate the challenges and risks are associated with installing illicit artwork in public places. However the universal theme is adapting visual artwork into a format which utilizes public space, allows artists who may otherwise feel disenfranchised, to reach a much broader audience than traditional artwork and galleries normally allow.

    I am Cedric, discoverer of things that would go unnoticed in the streets of Paris, historic haven of fashionistas and city of lights ('lights' as in 'enlightenment', not street lights).
    But seriously: I'm an expat from Luxembourg (the country, not the garden), living in the center of Paris (hence 'Paris 2nd arrondissement'), and currenlty studying architectural history...
