Christo Guelov, a Bulgarian visual and conceptual artist who lives in Madrid, is famous for his rather unusual installations, at least at first glance. His last "intervention" took place in the Swedish city of Gothenburg, where he painted the Älvsborg bridge in very special shades. Children will recognize them in no time.

Rune Guneriussen is an installation artist. He places everyday objects in remote Norwegian landscapes and thus conjures up a real fairy tale in which even 'hard' objects come to life.
After a successful one-month tour at Trg Republike in December 2015, Moonolith is moving to Ljubljana Castle on March 21. The interactive installation, which is different every time it is set up, will thus bring the moon and the stars right among us.
Basketball courts, indoor and outdoor, are more or less all the same. Parquet or concrete, marked with lines and any sponsors' markings or visiting teams. A Playground in Italy is a different kind of basketball court. It is an art installation, but it follows all the rules of the game.
Multidisciplinary artist Bina Baitel's wall clock is a mix of device and meditative sculpture, with massive eyelashes instead of hands.

More than 25,000 colorful paper flowers adorn the 6-meter-high atrium of a shopping mall in Omotesando, Tokyo. The visually stunning scene is part of the latest installation by French-born Emmanuelle Moureaux, who created this vibrant work as part of the Setting the Future in Motion exhibition.
Plastic reflection is an interactive kinetic installation by Thijs Biersteker that draws attention to the amount of waste that we humans create, much of which ends up in the oceans every year. The individual stands in front of the installation, which offers a reflection made of plastic particles instead of a classic reflection, thereby knocking on his conscience.
Random passers-by were greeted by an unusual scene on Hagerman Street in Toronto. Luzinterruptus, an anonymous art group from Spain, which is famous for interventions in public spaces (similar to our Prostoroževka), covered the street with ten thousand books!
The Guggenheim Museum in New York is richer for the 18-karat gold toilet bowl. Although you probably thought it was an exhibition exhibit at first, the golden toilet named America, located on the fifth floor of this famous museum of modern art, is not only functional, but can be used by any visitor. If, of course, he can wait in line.
Israeli artist Sigalit Landau started an interesting project in 2014. He submerged a black woman's dress in the Dead Sea, and after two years in salty water - the Dead Sea, which lies between Israel and Jordan, is the second saltiest lake in the world after Africa's Lake Asal - he recently pulled it to the surface. The result? A magical dress, as if pulled from a fairy tale, but not from water.
Mikroinstallations (in the original Mikroinstalacje) are half chairs, half deckchairs that revive forgotten parts of the city.

Polish designers Magdalena Szwajcowska and Michał Majewski from No Studio signed up for the temporary installations by the river in the Polish city of Wrocław. Are you also missing something similar on the riverfront?
