Russian Street Art

Street art seems to arrive wherever there’s a street. Regardless of the language or culture the occupants of the street have, it won’t be long before someone draws on the walls. Even our cave dwelling predecessors couldn’t resist decorating their surroundings with daubings. It’s as human as sneezing, or moaning.

I found these Russian street art photos on a Russian social networking site the other day and thought it would be nice for you to look at them. I don’t know who did them, where they are, what some of them mean or anything useful I’m afraid. But here they are regardless:

I guess the guy in the tracksuit below did this one. I don’t know who he is though I’m afraid. Let me know if you know?

Ekaterinburg, is the fourth-largest city in Russia and home to the Russian wing of the Ninja Turtles…

Zebras seem a strangely popular theme? I guess they’re fed up of boring old wolves and bears.
