Detailed Description

An original artwork by established French artist Ernest Pignon-Ernest, who has been doing performance and installation work on and around city walls for thirty years. He is obsessed with images of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and has transferred paintings, drawings, and serigraphs onto city walls and telephone booths. These images become part of the urban architecture, accepted by the population, and protected against deterioration.
