If Larry O’Brien Ran Bethlehem

If Larry O'Brien Ran Bethlehem Look what I found at lunchtime today! It’s a modern day nativity scene, called If Larry O’Brien Ran Bethlehem. It’s on a telephone pole on Elgin Street, near Somerset.

It’s not a Swap Box (it’s got a glass or plexiglass front), but it looks to me like the work of Maks, the Swap Box Artist. I love how his work keeps getting more political.

(As always, you can click any of the pictures to enlarge them. Even if you never enlarge images, I think you should make an exception just this once!)

Don't feed the pigeons in Bethlehem

A Kindness Meter!

There’s even a Kindness Meter in Bethlehem! (I think Jesus was born homeless, wasn’t he?)

Bribing the mayor in Bethlehem

This is my favourite piece of street art yet. It’s got everything: creativity, seasonal appeal, social commentary and political humour. Two thumbs up for Maks, if indeed he is the artist. Keep ’em coming!
