BLACK BLOCK Israel

Here, for more than 60 years, the bloody struggle of two nations in the Middle East hasn't stopped. Two nations fiercely try to exterminate each other under gallant patriotic exclamations and slogans, while puppeteers and ideologists of the destructive conflict stand and watch. With the help of their nearest colleague, Judaic religious institutes, the puppet government of Israel has transformed the Israeli society into "ideal citizens". A herd, piously trusting in the authenticity of the authorities, regularly serving in army and absolutely incapable of any display of collective protest. For more than 60 years almost the same people have operated the state, being guided by personal and corporate motives. Watering societies brains with various patriotic crap, they have provided the firmness and certainty of their power. These people have no relation either to belief in anything good nor to the people of Israel. Their interests are the interests of the international banks and the corporations supervising the manufacture and traffic in arms and mineral oil. The Israeli conflict is the excellent lever of pressure upon the countries exporters of oil, and as ideal range for tests of the new weapon.
But the Israel citizens do not see and do not wish to see. They're brainwashed by mass-media, made afraid of war and acts of terrorism, bound by incessant economic chains of Israeli economic debt. Bent under oppression of credits and the taxes, intimidated by crap from TV and newspapers of the authorities, angered by nationalist party propaganda and blinded by religious nonsense, the citizens of Israel have lost their ability to think critically.
Israel is a police state with an extremely high level of control.

Organization BLACK BLOCK Israel sets it's purpose to be the awakening of the sleeping consciousness of Israeli society and carrying out actions which are directed towards awakening of a spark within the public protest. First of all, it is necessary to co-ordinate an united front for the protest, which will include events and the good will organizations of Israel. Only having united can we break the chains that bonds us.

Nonsense of the Authorities: The Pulled out Heart.


Mobile photos: David Adika

Not so long ago, local artist Yochai Matos installed his work on Rothschild Street: a big pixelized heart laid out with ceramic tile. The next day workers from the city had already ripped it off with a pick and shovel, leaving a dirty fragment stain. Unfortunately, there are similar examples of nonsense and barbarous thinking coming from the city's authorities in Israel. Many interesting and useful projects have been abandoned because of the Israeli stupid tradition of local authorities trying to stop any individual's initiative. Legends are told about this tradition, but in the near future nothing will change. The Israeli citizens remain one of the most brainwashed on the planet, so it is possible only to dream about some expressions of the collective protest.

Find My Children . One portrait story.


I only noticed the text after I had already photographed this portrait. I have to admit that I stood in confusion for some time without knowing how to react. The reference to the person with the camera struck me immediately. Who is asking me for help? How can I help? I don't even know how to find them, this anonymous person who is asking for help. All these thoughts with a cold whirlwind have burnt my consciousness. It is necessary to urgently do something: go somewhere for help, tell friends, to make others aware... Dreamily I have come back home and have reflected: If the author really counted on help from a street stencil, he should leave some sort of contact information. Is this someone's very mean device for attracting attention? I don't know what to think till now. Is there anyone reading who knows a little bit of history on this piece?

The photo was taken on one of Florentine's neighborhood streets, near Aliya Street.

Florentine Visual News

Florentine's safari of graffiti characters has a new addition: a violet cactus with a whole brood of kids! Maybe we woke them up too early...The newly awoken creatures awkwardly yawned and discontentedly covered their eyes while we photographed them.



It seems someone doesn't have enough existing lanes and he has decided to construct one more street for the public in Florentine. Virtually.
When we saw the "Fame lane", we were delighted at it's masterfully executed effect of it's 3D effect. From afar it seemed possible to enter there... To the right of this city scene is a work still in progress, waiting for the artist to return... I think one night soon we will hunt for the artist.

The creative approach to a problem of geysers



Making daily tour, while out hunting for new graffiti, ViXEN and I saw an amusing situation. Some jokers had poured a canister of liquid soap in a city fountain. Being shaken up by water jets, the foam flowed over the banks and began to run into the street.
Snow-white clouds densely closed within a watery surface which made the impression that a small cloud had gone down to the fountain to have a drink. The froth of the foam was so thick that it could support a full pack of cigarettes.
Unfortunately, this unusual scene was not noticed by the area's sleepy inhabitants...only one young Thai girl with a child came to touch a soapy miracle.
