The so-called 'street art' in Lisbon was getting out of hand. After a long period of cleanups, Lisbon City Council finally decided to acknowledge graffiti and urban art as a legitimate form of creative expression and facilitate, support and institutionalize it.

And this is the result! Lisbon became a much better place to take a walk or explore.

What's the story behind the red armless mannequin? Probably from the boutique and there's not enough place inside
