Reversed graffiti
A British street artist known as Moose creates graffiti by cleaning dirt from sidewalks and tunnels. The tools are simple: A shoe brush, water and lot's of work. But now the british authorities face a dilemma: can cleaning the streets be considered vandalism?

Trompe l'œil
Trompe-l'œil (French for "trick the eye" from tromper - to deceive and l'œil - the eye;) is an art technique involving extremely realistic imagery in order to create the optical illusion that the depicted objects really exist.
One of the trademarks of Lyon in France are the realistic murals on the buildings.
This one for instance, one of my favourites, shows a virtual library with hundreds of references and text quotes.
