Love what Berlin based artist Vermibus does to show his art, he kidnaps ads from billboards around Berlin’s Potsdammer platz, takes them home, transforms them into artworks and puts them back into place. Although the artworks look like paintings, they are really completely the opposite. The works are created by using solvent, brushing away the faces[...]

Robert Montgomery writes poetry, but instead of writing it down on paper, he’s hijacking advertising spaces and replaces the advertisements with his poems. Pretty brilliant idea and reminding me of the ‘Times Square to Art Square‘ project.
