[pop-up] urbain on 02 Feb 17"But in the northern Italian city of Alessandria, Italy (about 60 miles south of Milan), a new, quirky basketball court masterminded by Sicilian mononymic artist Gue is giving the Paris court a run for its money. Combining shades of orange, yellow, blue, and gray, Gue used curved lines to create a color-blocked court that calls to mind the graphic work of Picasso. The effect, especially from the air, is striking, and reminds us of the power a mural can have on the appearance and vibe of even the most common elements of an urban streetscape."
