Oleg Vyshniakov - Ukraine and Israel. A group of designers in Jerusalem installed street lights in the form of giant 9 meter high flowers.

Good afternoon!

I think all of you would agree that today we all need positive emotions and positive discoveries. In today's world people are more concerned with other people's problems: work, politics, economy etc. All of us always run somewhere in a hurry in order to manage to do everything.

Circulation of daily routine leaves us no time for simple human joys. But one has only to stop for a while in order to see how beautiful the world around us is. There are always new works of contemporary artists on the streets of our cities! Today we become beholders just leaving the house. We need only to look up.

Modern art has gone beyond its usual forms for a long time. It has become a part of urban landscapes, a part of our lives. We see it in simple everyday things.

For example in Jerusalem a group of designers installed street lights in the form of giant 9 meter high flowers: they are opening, if a vehicle or person goes under them.

Authors of the project say they have created their own "magic flowers" not just to beautify the city, but also to remind people that there is always room for wonder and fantasy in the world.

In Kiev such sites as Landscape alley sculpture "Hedgehog in the Mist", the Wish Tree have already become favorite for many people. Now a group of young artists creates Murals on Kyiv skyscrapers. Mural is a giant painting of fantastic creatures or historical figures. Opinions about them were divided, but they just can not leave anyone indifferent.

I am sure that an ordinary person needs more joy, optimism and good feelings in this troubled world. I suggest you to duly appreciate the work of Israeli artists and admire their amazing creation.

Friends, is there street art in your city, which really decorates the streets? Let’s share the images with others.
