Stencil Art: Discovering Mimi the Clown

I know that Kayakbiker and I are Banksy fans.

In Paris, I saw two impressive stencil artists' work 'round town and noted their names: Jef Aerosol and Mimi the Clown. After I got home, I researched Jef Aerosol and put his bio info and links onto the story with the Alfred Hitchcock and Jim Morrison stencils. (See Paris: Dead Celebrities - Discovering Jef Aerosol)

Now I want to know about Mimi the Clown.

Here is information on Mimi the Clown - it is awesome!

Now I will see which images I have that I think Mimi was responsible for:

Number 1 has Mimi on the left and Frank Duval on the right. Numbers 2 and 3 turn out to be by Mimi. Number 4 (yellow woman) is by Frank Duval, as I find the sameimage appearing in New York City, Bedford Avenue (where both of these artists are discussed in the Village Voice} "French Artist Dudes Hit Bedford". The Village Voice then links to all the websites that I found on my own.

The one with the woman and the Michael Moore-looking guy was taken near Ephemere, which is a kind of an artist squat. I'm not sure who did it, but if you look closely, you can see the Eiffel Tower in the middle (and know that this is the 2nd highest spot in Paris after Montmartre - Belleville Park - you have to take alot of stairs through the park to get up there!)

Euphemisms have been used to "soften the language" when it comes to the condition in combat where a soldier's nervous system has reached the breaking point. In World War I, it was called "shell shock." In World War II, it became "battle fatigue," definitely less harsh-sounding, though two syllables became four.
