Section Urbaine
I've seen this stencil in Paris in the Marais. Apparently it was for an exhibition called "Installation-performance d'art urbain contemporain" in April to May 2005. Take a look at http://www.moskoetassocies.com/actualite.htm for more information.

Maja desnuda
This is a copy of the painting of Goya's Maja desnuda. The stencil is probably from the free university of stencil art WCA. I found this one in Barcelona.

Floquet de neu (Snowflake)
This is a stencil about Barcelona's famous albino gorilla "Floquet de neu" or in Spanish "copita de nieve" (= snowflake) who died in November 2003. He was a huge attraction of Barcelona's zoo and you can still find him on postcards, calendars, books and loads of other stuff in Barcelona. The poor gorilla had totally been commercialised and the stencil actually means translated "snowflake hates you".

I suck your blood
Seen this stencil in Barcelona next to a bank. Translation would be: I suck your blood at 5,5% per year.
