New York Street Advertising Takeover

You may have heard of this already; the Street Advertising takeover.
It's old news now. But I hope it's still going on!
Such a brilliant idea.

In America illegal street advertising is a big problem - ads everywhere....
So the street artists go out and paint over the billboards and replace it with some nice art instead!
But in America, money speaks, so what the artists are doing is 'more' illegal than the advertising. Some go to prison, most gets huge fines.

But it's nice to see that there are still some people who still cares....

Read more on their website.
