That little tan Jake Gyllenhal is stealing from those Americans

Thank you, I enjoyed these. Especially the guy drawing a woman getting beat, ending up with a beating of his own. :)
brightboy
These are fucking amazing!
Robbasaurusrex
I enjoyed these a lot.

DO YOU GET IT YET. But, honestly, these are pretty cool.

We need more art on Imgur.
URHELL
the police brutality one and the corporate guy painting the urban landscape are excellent
thenewgodofwar
The one in France, where the kid is stealing... he doesn't know it but that dad will find him and kill him.
Gauntlet2013
Damn Dran!

The second one is too real.
mando2606

The mother in the third one looks alot like ehh the actor from that 70s show cant remember her name

I love the art style of these and the messages are quite alarming. If we don't REALLY pay attention, things go unnoticed.
wolfetrax
The second one is my favorite

The are really good. These pictures all say more than a thousand words. +1

Not sure I get the Paris one. All the others have deeper meaning, but that one seems to only say "there are pickpockets in Paris".
ADirtySmellyHippy
Holy shit have you guys tried navigating this guys website? It's a whole other experience.

Monkey one was my favorite. Super deep.

Deep as, bro.

I love how he uses bright and lively colors while still getting his intentions across. You dont have to be 'gritty' to be 'real', people!
TheThingNoNotThatOne
Almost like that was the intention of the artist. Huh.
FinalBackwardsGlance
Shit so deep Adele can't roll in it.
SirHakase
It's like a French Banksy.

No, none of them are deep whatsoever. What on earth are you talking about.

That rainforest one makes me sad :/
Sadik2apo
Me too.... Because it's doomed to be our reality :(
ispud
It makes me sad when places are planned badly! Proper spatial planning prevents things like this from happening
NotFarEnough
I, uh, think the problems of major deforestation and habitat loss are due to more factors than just poor 'spatial planning'
ispud
Other factors are involved but it has a lot to do with spatial planning (or lack thereof) when space is being made for the built environment
Janedoe783
As a French, even for me it's hard to understand. The 2nd picture is about the "CRS" : French police during strikes who can be violent.
Crookedjaw13
Honnêtement, j'ai très vite compris les images, mais la dernière est celle qui m'a le plus touché.
Janedoe783
Qu'un artiste dénonce les violences c'est une chose, mais en France depuis quand on violente le messager? C'est pas une dictature...
witsd
I think most countries have had similar situations, so it translates better than you might think.
Janedoe783
I meant it doesn't refer to a specific French news.
brookers
As an American, it's simultaneously comforting and disgusting knowing we're not the only ones with scumbags with authority.
Janedoe783
scumbags everywhere :(
raidleadergutts
Police everywhere around the world are the same. Government sanctioned terrorists intent on looting and slaughter.

I had a similar experience while high. I spent too much time zoned into my computer screen then I saw my family watching me from the desktop
JiggaWattKGB
Then I realized they were living in the real world and watching me stuck inside my room through the monitor like a jail cell window

It's always the last one that gets us!

In these albums, when is it never that last one. Grabted the best is always saved for last.

It's just so wrong that we, as a human collective, do that to animals who are no "lesser" than us. Breaks my heart.
Captainfasterdangles
=] do you know what would really break your heart? A lioness ripping through your rib cage to eat it and then share you with her pride.PUSS
Captainfasterdangles
I guarantee you anything higher on the food chain thinks of you as "lesser" you fuckin bleed heart pussy.

Zoos exist to preserve genetic diversity in the face of human destruction. Bonobos are heading towards extinction in the wild right now.
TerryGosselin
I'm all for zoos if it means protecting a species and whatnot. But zoos that disregard an animal's well-being for entertainment.. No.

cameron274
Who watches *whom.
Oooldfart
Whom watches who at the St. Louis zoo? I'd say it the other way but it doesn't rhyme.
slack25
Can someone from france explain the significance of the 2nd to last and last one?
Starwaster
Are you trolling us??? You don't have to be french to figure out what the message is there....
Griffy11
Many nations that partake in deforestation have "refuges" and tourists traps that make it seem as if the forest hasn't been disturbed.
notoneiota
2nd to last one is about deforestation, I think. Lots of statistics being published by governments claiming that plantations are "forest".
wyattmcdude
last one: the monkeys in the cage but we are the ones being analyzed or watched like animals
dragonet111
The pick pocket is one of Paris biggest problem, the Africa painting is a reference to our colonial past. The others are more universal.
otherhalfofclyde
I thinks it's about how Africa is portrayed vs. how it actually is. On TV, you see "documentaries" about African tribes who are living (1/?)
otherhalfofclyde
happily among healthy plants, but in reality, everything is being taken away from them (2/2)
carewyllie
The pics have already been explained, but I had to say: I'm not from France. I'm not from Europe. They were obvious, weren't they?
Flucksy
Guess we're not as clever as you, bub.
slack25
They were for the most part, I was wondering if the last two had any specific significance to france that I wasn't picking up on because 1/2
slack25
2/2 I don't live there. Ex: I had no idea France had a big pickpocketing problem, the picture was clear but I didn't know it was widespread.
carewyllie
Good point!
onemillionzeros
Dreadfully obvious.
onemillionzeros
Oui. Souvent il ya des bâtiments avec des voitures à l'avoine rouge et délicieux bracelets utilisés pour le transport des canaris morts.
