Streets: World Roundup (June 2017)

It's been a long time since our last Streets World Roundup so we won't be able to catch you up with all the murals we have been enjoying the last year or so. We can however share what caught our eye in June though. Up top we have a mural from Eduardo Kobra in Carrara, Italy with a very unique placement. Painted in the famous Carrara quarry where Michelangelo and so many other renowned Italian artists sought marble for their works, the new 12 x 20 meter piece from the Brazilian artist is very meta with Michelangelo's David as the subject. Other notable public works come from Hopare (US), Etam Cru (Sweden), Bezt from Etam Cru (US), Dan Witz (New York), Leon Keer & Massina (Portugal), Nychos (US), Sabek (US), Tellas (Australia), 1010 (Canada), Shepard Fairey (Australia), and Cinta Vidal (Spain).
