“funnycross” – Urban Art&design. Torrelodones, Madrid, Spain.

Madrid based artist Christo Guelov uses zebra crossings to intervene in the urban landscape. The metaphor “A bridge between two shores” is the starting point of this artistic intervention. “Using simple geometrical designs and saturated colors reinforces the specific signaling and creates a touch of color in our urban landscape”, the artist comments.
This action, parallel to the art and design concept, fights toward improving driver and pedestrian focus, by enhancing respect for zebra crossing using its visual impact.
FUNNYCROSS sponsored by Torrelodones Council, Madrid, has been located at that town’s three schools’ four zebra crossings: San Ignacio (“Diagonals I” and, “Diagonals II”), Lourdes (“Waves”) and Los Angeles (“Interferences”), and in front of the Casa de Cultura “Carpet” Crossing.
FUNNYCROSS belongs to as a series of urban art interventions that the artist expects to perform in different cities of Spain and Europe.
