Why Led By Donkeys Targeted Elon Musk with โHeil Teslaโ in Berlin: streetartutopia.com/2025/01/23โฆ
Why Led By Donkeys Targeted Elon Musk with projection on Tesla Factory in Berlin
A provocative projection on Teslaโs Berlin Gigafactory depicted Elon Musk performing a Nazi-style salute, accompanied by the text โH*IL TESLAโ in Teslaโs iconic font. This striking act was orchestrated by the British activist art collective Led By Donkeys, known for their sharp political art and Zentrum fรผr Politische Schรถnheit.
The projection targeted Muskโs controversial gesture during Donald Trumpโs inauguration, which has been widely criticized for evoking fascist imagery. By placing this statement in Germanyโa country with strict anti-Nazi laws and a profound historical contextโLed By Donkeys amplified the gravity of their message, challenging the unchecked influence of billionaires and the normalization of extremist symbols.Led By Donkeys has a history of using public spaces to hold powerful figures accountable, and this projection is no exception. It underscores the role of activist art in sparking critical conversations about leadership, ethics, and the societal impact of those in positions of great influence.

Satirical Street Art: Elon Musk and Donald Trump Under the Public Eye: streetartutopia.com/2025/01/21โฆ
Satirical Street Art: Elon Musk and Donald Trump Under the Public Eye
Street art is one of the most powerful ways people can express their opinions about the world, and these two pieces are no exception.
They donโt just decorate the streets; they shout messages that demand to be heard.Opinion Piece: This article reflects the authorโs perspective on the social and political messages conveyed through these works of street art.
More: Elon Mask: Street Art Takes Aim at Muskโs Controversial Salute and Far-Right Ties
The first piece says, โKeep Europe Elon-Free,โ with a stencil drawing of Elon Muskโs face crossed out. Painted on an old, rough wall, it doesnโt hold back.
Itโs a clear rejection of Muskโs growing influence and recent controversial actions in Europe. Muskโs public endorsement of Germanyโs far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party and his livestream with its leader, Alice Weidel, arenโt just boldโtheyโre part of a bigger play to push political conversations to the right.It shifts focus to immigration while conveniently ignoring issues like taxing the ultra-rich.
This artwork cuts straight to the point: why do so many idolize someone who seems more invested in his own power than in the well-being of others? Itโs a wake-up call to stop glorifying wealth and start questioning its impact.
By My Stencil in Lyon, France.
The second piece is no less biting. It shows Donald Trump in a suit, gazing upward at a small red heart floating just out of reach.
Across from him, a child holds a globe, seemingly teasing him or simply not caring about his presence. The message couldnโt be clearer: hope and responsibility for the planet belong to the next generation, not to leaders who put themselves first. Trumpโs expressionโdetached and unawareโmakes the contrast even starker. The graffiti and layers of other art around the mural only add to its raw, unapologetic vibe.Street art like this isnโt just decoration; itโs resistance. Art has the power to question, challenge, and inspire.

Grandparents Build Life-Size Totoro Bus Stop for Their Grandkids in Japan
In the small town of Takaharu in Japan, two grandparents in their 70s made a dream come true for their grandkids.
They built a life-size Totoro sculpture with a bus stop just like in the movie My Neighbor Totoro. This sweet surprise brings the magic of Studio Ghibli to life. Here it is on Google Maps!
How They Built Totoro
The grandparents worked hard to create this amazing Totoro. First, they built a barrel-shaped frame. Then, they used plastering techniques theyโve practiced for years. They carefully added concrete to make Totoroโs big belly, cute whiskers, and expressive eyes. To make sure Totoro looked round and perfect, they used bricks inside the frame before finishing it with more concrete. Finally, they painted it and set it up on a nice brick-and-gravel path with the famous bus stop sign from the movie.
A Fun Place to Visit
This Totoro bus stop has become super popular. Fans from all over come to Takaharu to see it. Visitors love to take pictures with Totoro, and the grandparents even provide a red umbrella just like in the movie for photos.
A Special Tribute to Studio Ghibli
This Totoro isnโt just a gift for the familyโitโs also a way to celebrate the magic of Studio Ghibli movies. The sculpture has turned into a local landmark, spreading joy and showing how creativity and love can bring people together.If youโre a Studio Ghibli fan or just enjoy cool, creative spots, this Totoro bus stop in Japan is a place you wonโt want to miss!

The Legend of Giants: An Immortal Artwork by Natalia Rak
In the heart of Biaลystok, Poland, a legendary tale has been elegantly translated into a vivid mural by the talented artist Natalia Rak. Painted back in 2013 for the Folk on the Street festival, the mural has become a lasting symbol of this vibrant city.Natalia Rak: โWhen I started drawing a sketch I had to consider few elements of the area, for example there are windows and growing tree which we canโt cut. The organizers gave me texts about polish legends from that region. I especially liked legends about giants. First they destroy world around them but later they start to copy human behavior and started taking care of the nature. I hit on an idea how including the tree. I think this mural is good start to take up green areas development. Cities should have as many trees as possible. When I started I had CMYK in acrylics and more that 100 cans. I always use acrylic paints on background and then I make detail using spray cans. The sketch took me 4 hours. I worked ten hours per day. After seven days this mural was finished. I had rain each day of work but I was very optimistic and full of hope.โ
