Classical Paintings on Streets
Julien de Casabianca started Outings Project to fill the cultural gap between the museum and street. Using nothing but mobile phone people can take photos of abandoned and less-known pictures in museums and transfer them on street walls with the help of Outings team. It is legal until you break a law.
P.s. I bet Julien needs to visit Saint-Petersburg and check the street project done by Russian Museum with the same idea. It was vandalised several if not dozen times until people get used to it, and now you watch Russian Classic Paintings outside.
Walking New York by JR
Earlier this month, workers with the French street artist JR (previously) covered a plaza in Manhattan's Flatiron district with a giant, wheat-pasted photograph of a guy walking. It was 20-year-old immigrant and Brooklynite Elmar Aliyev in mid-stride. The image was only up for a day, and almost no one noticed. But it would go on to create one of the most inventive New York Times magazine covers of recent memory.
The cover is a commentary on the invisibility of immigrants, a theme JR has previously explored. "For this project, we decided we’d photograph recent immigrants and paste their images on the city’s streets, where they and other immigrants are often invisible," the NYTimes writes. The French artist photographed several different immigrants before landing on Aliyev, who came to New York from Azerbaijan last August after winning the green card lottery.

JBAK Street Art
JBAK is a creative partnership between artists James Bullough and Addison Karl. Each artist brings his unique vision and style to their combined body of work. Bullough’s main focus is photo-realism, with attention to ambient and deep space, layers, and geometric forms. He combines contemporary street art techniques and materials with those of realist oil painters, creating pieces of vivid color and masterful detail. Conversely, Addison’s work is produced using a hatch drawing style, which utilizes fine lines and details to create fantastic illustrations of both diminutive and immense images and proportions.

Surreal Illustration of Mehdi Ghadyanloo
"Merging the style of the early 20th Century surrealists with contemporary street art, Tehran-based artist Mehdi Ghadyanloo’s work is strange and beguiling. He’s currently in London, busying himself with the mammoth task of creating murals all around the capital, including one measuring a whopping 3.4km. As if that wasn’t enough, he’s also showing at the Howard Griffin Gallery in London, in an exhibition entitled Perception." via
Perception is at the Howard Griffin Gallery in Shoreditch, east London until 2 April.
