Clet Street Art
Florence Italy
2016

The no entry sign is a red circle with a horizontal white stripe through the centre. It indicates that all types of motor vehicles are prohibited from entering the road.


It’s not necessary to go back in time to find evidence of a mysterious Florence. For example, the works of the contemporary artist Clet have become famous even outside the city, thanks to the perfect mix of sarcasm and originality. Young tourists, after spending the night in a B&B, going around the streets of Florence and looking at the road signs, will be pleasantly surprised by the eye-catching and unique works of the artist.
As regards street art, Florence presents a whole area dedicated to it: a small street near Piazza Pitti leads young people and adults on a journey through the works of some modern artists. It’s impossible to resist the temptation to take a picture.


Scattered all over the city

While wandering Florence’s narrow, cobblestoned streets and alleys, keep your eyes peeled for Clet street art.

Clet Abraham uses stickers to turn ordinary street signs into works of art. Some are amusing, while others communicate political messages.
