Moving With The Times
An unknown artist,(dubbed as the Banksy of Bulgaria) transformed a monument of Russian Red Army soldiers into popular characters and superheroes. On the wall below the characters, the graffiti artist has sprayed “Moving with the times” in Bulgarian with black paint.
Twenty years ago you would have been shot for stepping too close to this monument in the city of Sofia in Bulgaria. However, This monument has been the canvas for many graffiti artist over the past 20 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, but know one has seen or imagined anything like this.
A member of the Bulgarian Socialist Party is shown cleaning the statue in February 2010 below.
