Wheat-paste street-art on Wooster St. in SoHo. The black-and-white profile image is of a woman sporting a 1960’s-style hairdo. We have to wonder if the lady in this picture is actually a man in drag. Even though her hairstyle is different and face only vaguely similar, we can’t help but think of Amy Winehouse when we look at this photo.

We’ve been in France for the better part of the last two weeks, so there’s been a bit of a hiatus here at the Global Graphica site. But we’re back with a vengeance and loads of new images of street art and graf and more from France. We took these shots while wandering around neighborhoods in the centers of Paris and Dijon.
The work and moniker of street artist Space Invader is inspired by the 1980’s Japanese arcade video game sensation “Space Invaders.” The artist’s mosaics are large renderings of the digitally pixelated alien from the video game, and the tile-works come in various sizes and colors. We found this example of Space Invader in the trendy and gallery-filled Saint Germain-des-Pres neighborhood of Paris, which like many central nabes in the French capital is made up of expensive residential and commercial real estate.

This is a classic piece of large-scale street art by New York artist WK Interact, whose work is drawn in high-contrast black-and-white images that convery power and motion. This image suggest the notion of headache as experienced by a necktie-wearing office slave. A masked wrestler is tearing violently at the head the office worker. This street art is on a large garage door on a weathered industrial building. But looks can be decieving. Across the street and down the block are million-dollar condos, duplex penthouse apartments and lofts.
