A Tunisian Journalist Call, via Le M.U.R./Facebook

You are a Tunisian street artist or one of your friends is... or maybe you have a good knowledge  
of the GRAFFITI / URBAN ART scene in Tunisia... Will you please be so kind to leave a comment on  
LE M.U.R. right HERE? 
A Tunisian journalist - aiming to present an overview of Street Arts spreading around in Tunisia 
since the spring revolution and the departure of Ben Ali - will get in touch with you.

... Throughout Tunisia, giant murals of ordinary people replaced large portraits of Ben Ali. 
In the gutted ruins of government buildings, the burned husks of presidential palaces, and other locations like 
billboards, walls, along streets and the Porte de France, in Tunis, they aimed to provoke discussion ‘in a world 
turned upside down or inside out’, transforming the streets and areas of social conflict into new arenas for 
discourse and dialogue."

Any question about URBAN ART in Tunisia... like why? when? where? how?
Find the answers on Brandon Letzinger's essay 'Creating the Political: Street Art after the 2011 
Tunisian revolution.
