Some Street Art from Ljubljana

This post contains a few photos of some of the art we discovered while wandering the streets of the Slovenian capital, which I hope you enjoy.  The first we encountered was this statue of a bull taken outside of a bank near the apartment where we were staying — shades of Wall Street!

One of these pieces of street art provided last weekend’s One Clue mystery photo.   It’s a bronze in a fountain called, ‘Youth Wheel’ (1962).  Congratulations to George G, who figured out where we were visiting.

I didn’t catch the names of anyone of the following pieces, but some seemed a little familiar.  The bronze below reminds me of a tai chi or martial arts pose.

It being Slovenia, you’d need to have a few dragons around…

I think the kangaroo was meant to be a planter, but people were using its pouch as a trash receptacle.

This wall receives my nomination for the best use of an exterior pipe — ever.

Another gaping hole to be filled by trash….

Perhaps a statue of Adam and Eve? — after the apple.

This piece was found near the Central Market, although I have no idea what it represents.

This youngster desperately needs a pair of knickers.
