With the most primitive means the artist creates
something which the most ingenious and efficient
technology will never be able to create.

Unkwnon, Abreast with the Times
-detail-
As the AFP is reporting, Sofia's massive bronze
relief sculpture honoring the Red Army's advance
on Nazi-allied Bulgaria during World War II has long
been a bone of contention between Russophiles
and anti-communists in Bulgaria, who want it
demolished.
But an anonymous artist gave the piece a tongue-
in-cheek paint job that re-imagined the figures of
Soviet soldiers as comic book heroes, with the
Joker, Wolverine of "X-Men" fame, Superman all
standing guard alongside other fantasy figures like
Santa Claus and Ronald McDonald, among others.
In addition, the flag

held by the soldiers has been painted with U.S.
stars and stripes.
In addition, a spray-painted inscription was
reported by the AFP to read, Abreast with the
times".

Marcel Rius, Fanatic Wars
Many people have an alter-ego or a double life
reflected in their work, what they wear or how
they act in various moments.
Fanatic Wars is based on the alter egos that
Mexicans have been creating since 1977 with the
release of the first Star Wars film "A New Hope".
Disguised as their favourite characters, these
"heroes" come from a wide mix of different social
classes including those from families with young
children who also take part. Their Star Wars alter-
ego transforms them into another person; the hero
they feel they aren't in daily life, or at least not
the sort of hero that defends the fate of the
universe.
I feel that we are all reflected in them somehow,
in that contact that remains with the inner child.
The costumes they have bought (or have spent a
long time making themselves) is like an armour
that takes them away from reality. It is these
moments where they are immersed in a magical
world of dreams that everything is possible, until
the mask comes off again.

F. W. Murnau, Nosferatu, eine
Symphonie des Grauens
-A Symphony of Horror; also known as Nosferatu: A
Symphony of Terror or simply Nosferatu-
Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens is a classic
1922 German Expressionist horror film, directed by
F. W. Murnau, starring Max Schreck as the vampire
Count Orlok. The film, shot in 1921 and released in
1922, was an unauthorized adaptation of Bram
Stoker's Dracula, with names and other details
changed because the studio could not obtain the
rights to the novel (for

Dracula" became "Count Orlok")
