Luzinterruptus is an anonymous artistic group who carries out urban interventions in public spaces and they are the shit.
The group of three comes from different disciplines: art, lighting and photography and use light as a raw material and the dark as our canvas. They began on the streets of Madrid at the end of 2008 with the simple idea of focusing people´s attention by shedding light on problems they found in cities that seem to go unnoticed to the authorities and citizens.
Check out these two exhibits – the top was in NYC and includes 800 books, each with a light attached with the intention of replacing traffic with literature. The bottom took place in Madrid and it’s leaves trapped in plastic containers as a criticism of the lack of green spaces in moder cities.
Pure genius. Punk LA next, please?
