not faking it?



" This definitely looks photoshopped but actually it's a life-size photographic work based on the original building in Paris, printed on canvas, enhanced with bas-relief. It shelters the renovation of an Hausmannian building during year 2007. The project is named"39GeorgeV" is an urban surrealism manifesto. " - interesting article i found the other day on Tumblr
  


you've probably seen this picture in tabs or ads somewhere saying "real or fake? you decide!" or "photoshopped wonders" whatever the case, i saw it and after finding out that the photo was totally normal and only the building was a mindblowing work of art, i chose to look at it from a semi artistic viewpoint rather than a judging disbeliever of artistic masterpieces
.      .     .
my opinion of the photos of this one of a kind "urban surrealism project" is that it is truly magnificent and totally INSANE! the weirdness and lack of structure/form of the building are probably the characteristics that entice people the most and give it a truly one of a kind look and feel of a seriously messed up looking building!

check out the photos in the link and tell me what you think?
would you be cool with having any structure in your town (or anyother town) look something like this?
