Blek le rat
The pioneer
If you know Banksy already you should learn a bit about Blek le rat.
He began in the early 80's in the graffiti scene by doin stencils on the streets of Paris, like he use to say to not imitate the NYC graffiti scene he discovered during a rip over there in 1971. Why rats?! because rats are the only widl living animals in cities and only rats will survive when the human race will have disappeared and died out. (dixit himself)
This is the begginin' of a long serie of stencils, rats & big portraits he stick on the walls around the world through the years until now. Sometimes it's just a rat, a tribute to someone know or unknown, or even pieces of life.
