East London-based Ronzo has been braving the unsurprisingly heavy police presence to get his art where it’s meant to be exhibited: on the street. Naturally, spray paint and stencils are likely to raise suspicion, but that doesn’t matter at all to Ronzo, who has been installing little sculptures of “ghetto pigeons.” Oh, yeah. And the birds are poopin’.
Cute. He’s also got this mural of Olympic Bird to let you know exactly what the London pigeon population thinks of the games:
If you want to take home one of these little fellas yourself, you can buy prints of Going for the Gold at a cool 75.00 pounds or about $117.00.
Love this. Great how a 'street artist' actually dares to sell his work, work which depicts a pigeon shiteing over the Olympics, which he presumably doesn't like because people/organisations are making money out of it. I like the irony of that, the irony of him jumping on the Olympic bandwagon to make money too. You go, Ronzo, you go. You rebel street artist you, eff the system and all that. I'm a believer. This guy must have 'the man' running scared, and you too can become an instant rebel by merely stumping up approximately £100 sterling. Yeh.
