  3. Le mouvement « No Kings » mobilisait pour la troisième fois consecutive aux Etats unis ce 28 mars. Beaucoup de monde dans les cortèges et beaucoup de créativité et d’humour dans les slogans, les pancartes ou les déguisements. Bonne pioche avec cette photo de Rohan Preston (The Minnesota Star Tribune). Bel homage à Prince au passage.

  7. When power rots, who should inherit the earth?

    Graffiti on a concrete wall reads: "May the rotting flesh of Kings feed the earth," with an encircled 'A' symbolizing anarchism. This phrase echoes revolutionary and anti-monarchist rhetoric, possibly drawing inspiration from the Book of Revelation, where kings and rulers face divine judgment. The statement expresses a desire for the fall of corrupt power structures, where the decay of oppressive rulers symbolically nourishes the earth—suggesting rebirth, justice, or revolution. The rough, […]

  13. 12 Powerful Street Art Masterpieces Showing Unwavering Support for Ukraine

    Since Russia invaded Ukraine over a year ago, street artists worldwide have wielded their brushes and spray paints, creating a powerful collection of anti-war murals and protest art.

    These artists visually express their resistance to the war in Ukraine and advocate for fundamental human rights and values.

    We’ve curated a collection of street art by artists who dedicate their creative talents to supporting peace in Ukraine. These striking pieces serve as reminders of the human cost of war while displaying solidarity against the conflict in Ukraine, often alongside fundraising efforts.

    Sasha Korban

    Sasha Korban‘s mural in Kyiv emerged in April 2022, as battles for the liberation of Bucha and Irpin unfolded nearby. His work, characterized by a fusion of photorealism and Pop Art, has evolved to reflect violent power struggles. Korban’s large-scale murals promote peace throughout Ukraine, including a 2018 piece titled Milana in Mariupol, a city facing a devastating humanitarian crisis.

    Justus Becker

    German artist Justus Becker painted a giant dove of peace for Ukraine on the exterior of a downtown Frankfurt building. The dove holds an olive branch in Ukraine’s national colors, symbolizing hope and solidarity. Becker spent three days creating this powerful street art piece.

    Christian Guemy

    French street artist Christian Guemy, also known as C215, flew to Ukraine to paint serene and innocent images on Kyiv’s walls as the war broke out. Following the Russian invasion, the former Banksy collaborator created a massive mural of a girl in Ukrainian flag colors on a Paris apartment building.

    Despite the risks, C215 felt compelled to travel to Ukraine to help in any way he could. He has since painted several murals across Kyiv, including a poignant image of a girl wearing a flower headband near a heavily damaged metro station.

    HIJACK

    Los Angeles street artist HIJACK opposes Putin’s war on Ukraine, giving a voice to children suffering in the war-torn country or fleeing brutal bombings.

    Krišs Salmanis

    In Riga, Latvia’s capital, the Museum of the History of Medicine showcased a large banner featuring a skull-shaped portrait of Vladimir Putin on its facade. Positioned opposite the Russian Embassy of Latvia, the museum conveys a strong stance against the war in Ukraine. Conceptual artist Krišs Salmanis created the poster, which was initially commissioned as the cover image for Ir magazine. More photos.

    TUSE

    A mural depicting Putin, Hitler, and Stalin with the slogan “No More Time” adorns a wall outside the PKM Gdansk Jasien railway station. This powerful piece is the first in a series of anti-war “Solidarity with Ukraine” murals emerging in Gdansk and is the work of renowned Polish street artist Piotr Tuse Jaworski, better known as TUSE.

    Pappas Pärlor

    Swedish street artist Johan Karlgren, known as Pappas Pärlor, crafts interactive street art that enlivens everyday environments. His pixelated characters, inspired by his love for old-school video games, bring a unique touch to his creations.
