Vhils' 'cut & paste' work on Le MUR

Le M.U.R. - #121 Alexandre Farto, aka Vhils - May 19/2012

[excerpt from a video taken from the bus #96 at 7:15pm]

Below, the wall around 4pm...

... only, Vhils' work didn't last longtime.

Villeglé's poster was robbed on September 2008, now it's Vhils' tour...

Is this the price of success?

I've shot the following picture on Wednesday 23:

... Tuesday night has been 'hot', in Oberkampf, and a witness reported that someone

equipped with a ladder and pretending to be a member of Le MUR's team boldly did

the job.

And that's all, folks!

2nd mission in Marseilles...

Gare de Lyon, TGV and another short stay in the town of Marseilles!
Will I find my ideal nest, this time?

[FamousHostels]
Here is the Old Port 'Vertigo', a cheap and very pleasant place to stay...
2 steps away from the pedestrian area all around the cours Honoré d'Estienne d'Orves
and the Place des Huiles, full of bars and restaurants.
(click to see the Slideshow):

Vineyards in the heart of Marseille:
Paris has its own wine in Montmartre, Marseille will soon have
its Vieux Port vintage.
The city council has planted 150 vines last year in the tourist
district of Saint-Victor at the foot of the Abbey, five minutes from
the Old Port.

This time it will be the 'total immersion' strategy in my targeted area, the direct contact with the native by 'hijacking'
them in the street and the 'sit in and chat in bars' technique.
Yes, there are other ways than ask realtors to find an apartment.
