I think every city in the world should be doing this. It’s called Windows Of Opportunity: Shops left empty by the recession are filled by crowd sourced creative work, turning a negative eyesore in to a positive space for art.

Check it out. The before and afters are just fantastic.

British street artist T. Magic has just released a new collection of recession-inspired artwork entitled Desktop Collectibles. These 9 mini-canvases have depictions of his dark social commentary/affirmations like “Art Is My Hustle” “Success Is My Destiny” and “Pain Is My Glory…” These canvases are painstakingly small (4×4 inches) supported with a tiny little handmade easel.  It took the artist 50 days to create this super-limited (tiny) collection. I like the first one best! £50 each. Very Warhol.
