# L’Atlas in New York

Yes, i love his artworks! Yes, he is one of my idols and a great inspirational source. Yes, some of [my tape artworks](http://www.flickr.com/photos/streetart-berlin/3670473759/in/set-72157615491016131/) are mainly influenced by him. Yes, I talk about **L’Atlas**!

French street artist L’Atlas is currently in New York for his “City Fragments” urban art exhibition. His internationally-known and outstanding artworks became a symbol of the modern mixture of playful typography and the accuracy of architectural presets.




Whether with paint, tape or chalk, there are no borders for L’Atlas’ unique style. His signs, letters and compasses are highly recognizable and and there is no restriction on their sizes.

Some days ago, he painted with chalk a huge symbol in New York’s Washington Square Park. The whole performance was filmed, what makes it possible for you to watch L’Atlas while working. For me it’s phenomenal!
