Street artist Space invader known all over the world for its small mosaics depicting the heroes of the video game of the same name. But not only they are limited to the "gentleman's set" of this author. For example, the other day in Paris appeared his work dedicated Spiderman … The past year can be called quite successful for the French artist known under the pseudonym Space Invader or simply Invader. His work went underwater and went to the International Space Station. And in 2013, you have to hear about him every now and then. For example, recently his new work appeared in Paris, much more ambitious than the overwhelming majority of the previous ones.
At the same time, he significantly departed from the theme in creativity to which we had time to get used to, and this Parisian work of him no longer depicts the Space Invaders, but one of the most popular comic book heroes - Spider-Man.
Crafted in the same pixelated style for which the Space Invader's work is famous, this picture shows Spider-Man hanging upside down on a spider's web and the arthropod itself, which is located nearby, this work is located on the Avenue de L'Opera in the heart of Paris. And, with dimensions of several meters, this work of street art, hanging under the very roof, is perfectly visible even from the level of the sidewalk.
Paris is the hometown of the Space Invader, and therefore hundreds, if not thousands of works by this author can be seen there. But this work of art is the most ambitious and unusual of them. Such creativity can no longer be closely perceived as hooliganism. This is the most real art, which in recent years has become such a world-famous symbol of the French capital as the Eiffel Tower, Louvre or La Defense skyscrapers.
