Clet Abraham Street Signs in New York
For the last four years, Florence-based French street artist Anecleto “Clet” Abraham has been hacking street signs across Europe. His altered street signs which see the artist adding vinyl street sign stickers to the existing road signs are to be seen in France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Great Britain, and Spain.
Clet Abraham's London Street Art
—
We have previously featured a large selection of Clet's work when he visited London last year (covered here), hitting up parts of Shoreditch, Brick Lane, and Old Street in East London as well as parts of Soho in Central London. While some of his street artworks were removed almost instantly, there are still a lot of the pieces still running on the streets. It's like a never-ending treasure hunt trying to document all of Clet's London work.
Just when you think you have seen all of his London work, one will pop up unexpectedly like a recent spot in Southwark near the Tate Modern, suggesting that there are more of his artworks to be found in this neighborhood! And so the hunt continues.

Clet Abraham's New York Street Art
In late October of this year, Clet headed to New York City with his sticker interventions, hitting up the street signs of Manhattan as he had done in London.
New York blog Animal New York caught up with Clet during his US visit, following him around the Lower East Side in Manhattan on a Citi Bike, capturing some of the 50 or so street signs he altered during his visit to the USA. See the French street artist at work in the short film below.
