Rebuild paradise


As you can see, stencils don't always have to be on walls - there are also many other places such as a trash can! Seen in Barcelona near the MACBA.

Japanese woman


I saw this stencil in Barcelona on a wall painted completely with Graffities. I am not 100% sure but think it might be a work by BTOY, a Spanish (?) artist living in Barcelona. Check out his archive on http://www.fotolog.net/btoy/

ELIK & FAILE & BAST


Seen this stencil in Barcelona in the Borne area. It is from the same group of artists as the one from yesterday - ELIK & FAILE & BAST. Unfortunately, I could not find too much about them on the internet but found this link http://www.streetsy.com/tag/elik/ - check it out. Some familiar stencils there maybe ??? It seems that "Empty pleasures" was a kind of event.

Robert Capa's Falling soldier





This stencil is a copy of the Robert Capa's photo "Death of a Loyalist Soldier". As you can see, on the stencil the soldier is actually falling from his skateboard :) I found this stencil in Barcelona on a wall near the MACBA (Museum of Modern art of Barcelona) which is a meeting point for
skaters from everywhere. I put also the original photo for the ones who should not know it - you can see that the stencil is really close to the original.

We saw this stencil in Naples. Unfortunately, as you can see, it looks a bit damaged but I liked it anyway and thought it should be displayed here.

Oral McDonald


Well, as you know, stencils contain in most of the cases a message and I think the message of this one is clear.... We saw this stencil in Rome in the Trastevere area.

Rollerskating Charlie Chaplin


We came accross this stencil as so many others in the so-called "Borne" in Barcelona. It is a work by is_bach from Paris. Check out his works at http://www.fotolog.com/is_bach . I remember that where this one was there were actually like 10 other stencils on the walls, they were really covered with stencils and graffities.

Bush and the old jokes


Bush is a very popular motive for stencils. You can find him in a lot of "disguises". Here is one that I took in Granada this year.

Holy stencil of Cambridge


This stencil has been taken by ODD in Cambridge. I liked it such a lot and decided to post it. Dear ODD, I hope you don't mind. Unfortunately, I don't have your e-mail so I couldn't ask you for permission. Thanks for your comment and the photo. Greetings from Barcelona.
