Der einzigartige Lichtorgelspringbrunnen Roshen, der auf der gleichnamigen Uferstraße in Winnyzja ganz vor kurzem – im Herbst 2011

erschien, kam schon dazu, zum Schlüsselsymbol der Stadt zu werden und den führenden Platz in der Liste der touristischen Hauptobjekte des Landes einzunehmen, zu den zehn spektakulärsten Springbrunnen der Gegenwart gehörend. Und es ist nicht verwunderlich, da er der größte in Europa Schwimmlichtorgelspringbrunnen ist, der nach den

Der Springbrunnen in Winnyzja ist der wahrhaftig merkwürdige hydroingenieurmässige Bau, der mit den technischen Daten überrascht: seine Länge ist 97 Meter, die Breite – 10 Meter, die Höhe des zentralen Strahles – 63 Meter, und das Wasserauseinanderfliegen in der Front erreicht 140 Meter. Außerdem ist Roshen der in der Welt einzige Springbrunnen, der nicht im künstlichen

Schwimmbad errichtet ist, sondern auf dem offenen Wasserbecken – im Flussbett der Südliche Bug. Noch ein Detail, das den Springbrunnen in Winnyzja einzigartige macht, ist die sogenannte „überwinternde Technologie“, die in der Winterzeit die Konstruktion unter das Eis senken lässt.

Charakteristiken dem weltweit bekannten musikalischen Springbrunnen in Dubai nah ist.

10

Der Springbrunnen ist mit dem originellen Lasersystem ausgestattet, das am riesenhaften Bildschirm, der das Wasser-Luftleinen darstellt, die Animationsvideowerbefilme im Format 3D demonstrieren lässt. Die

von 560 vielfarbigen Unterwasserlaternen eingeblendet, indem er die eigenartige schöne Lichtorgelwassershow schafft.

Umfänge des von den Spritzern und dem Wasserstaub gebildeten Projektionsbildschirmes beeindrucken – 16 х 45 Meter.

Um diese zu sehen, kommen die Touristen aus der ganzen Ukraine und anderen Ländern in Winnyzja.

Mit der anzaubernden Musikbegleitung der bekannten Komponisten absilvieren die Kunststrahle des Springbrunnens in Winnyzja den feenhaften Tanz. Und zur Abendzeit wird dieser wunderliche Wasserspringbrunnen

Die Schöpfer dieses merkwürdigen hydrotechnischen Baus arbeiten immer an der Vergrößerung der Zahl der Sondereffekte, das Repertoire des Springbrunnens in Winnyzja ausbreitend und seine Shows noch spektakulärer und einprägsamer machend.

La fontaine Roshen La fontaine unique de son et lumière Roshen, qui est apparue sur le quai homonyme à Vinnytsia tout à fait récemment – en automne de 2011, mais elle a réussi déjà à devenir le symbole clé de la ville et prendre la place principale dans la liste des principaux objets touristiques du pays, étant entré dans la dizaine des fontaines les plus spectaculaires de l’époque contemporaine. Et ce n'est pas étonnant, parce qu’elle est la plus grande fontaine flottante de son et lumière en Europe, qui est pareille par ses caractéristiques à la fontaine musicale mondialement connue à Dubai.

La fontaine de Vinnytsia – la construction hydraulique réellement surprenant, qui frappe par les spécifications: sa longueur 97 mètres, la largeur – 10 mètres, la hauteur du courant central – 63 mètres, et le rayon de détente d'eau atteint 140 mètres. Encore un détail qui fait la fontaine de Vinnytsia unique, est soi-disant «la technologie hivernant», qui à la période d'hiver permet de baisser la structure sous la glace.

La fontaine est équipée du système original laser, qui sur l'écran gigantesque représentant la toile d’eau-aérienne, permet de présenter les vidéoroulettes d'animation dans le format 3D. Les proportions de l'écran à projection formé par les gouttelettes et la poussière aquatique impressionnent – 16 х 45 mètres.

Sous l’accompagnement de la musique charmante des compositeurs connus les courants façonnés de la fontaine de Vinnytsia exécutent la danse féerique. Le soir la danse-tournoi fantasque d'eau est illuminée par 560 lanternes multicolores sous-marines, en créant le show de la beauté exceptionnelle de son et lumière, et les touristes de toute l'Ukraine et d'autres pays viennent la voir à Vinnytsa.

Les créateurs de cette installation hydraulique surprenante travaillent constamment sur l'augmentation de la quantité d'effets spéciaux, en élargissant le répertoire de la fontaine de Vinnytsia et en faisant son show encore plus spectaculaire et qui reste dans la mémoire.

«Common passion – common future.

Cooperation of medical schools from Poland and Ukraine» Lately the group of teachers and students of Vinnytsya Medical College had a nice opportunity to visit Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship in Poland Hanna Chrzanowska Post-Secondary Medical School in Morawica. In October 2015 we took part in the international project called «COMMON PASSION COMMON FUTURE. COOPERATION OF MEDICAL SCHOOLS FROM POLAND AND UKRAINE».

We lived and studied in «Educational Centre» in Wolka Milanowska.

The program of the project was very intensive but interesting.

On the first day we visited Nowa Stupia. We went up 2 km. high to Łysą Górą where Święty Krzyż (Holy Cross) Sanctuary is located. This is a big beautiful Catholic monastery, where there is a piece of Holy Cross and there is a historical and cultural museum, whith many different souvenirs from various countries. Later we visited the Medieval Settlement. We were acquainted with the customs, culture, farming and household of medieval people and tried to weave, sculpt wares of clay, milk a cow by themselves. We also competed with our Polish friends in dragging a rope and jumped over it.

After that we made a fire and made a picnic near it. We roasted hot dogs and sang songs. It was unforgeable!

The next day we went to Hanna Chrzanowska Post-Secondary Medical School in Morawica. There was an official opening of our project. Many lessons and master classes were held on 4 areas: massage, pharmacy, basic medical treatment, beauty treatment workshops. We had an opportunity to learn the history of the institution, its well-rounded students and highly

15

qualified teachers. We discussed about massage techniques, hot stone massage, variety of beauty treatments, we also made our own bath bomb, lipstick, facial coffe masks and various creams for hands and feet. We were taught and trained on first aid in case of cardiac arrest.

On Thursday we visited Świętokrzyskie Emergency Medical Service and Medical Transport Centre ( Sw. Leonarda Street) with installed GPS-navigators.

The stations are equipped with monitors where dispatchers can see all patients.

In emergency cases helicopters are sent for.

In the Oncological center I was pleasantly surprised by the level of technical equipment. In every office there are several computers connected by a common network, making it easy to exchange information. We were demonstrated a variety of devices for the diagnosis in oncopathology. It was interesting to learn how diagnoses are made and the treatment prescribed to the patient.

One of the most interesting moment was visiting Jan Kochanowski University. The biggest admiration was caused by the waxwork and 3-D anatomical atlas. The human waxwork simulated almost all vital signs. It breathed, it had a pulse, it was possible to measure blood pressure, it blinked, cried, made various sounds like a real human! . It was universal and allows to perform all medical procedures.

3D atlas is a large multimedia screen on which the program is installed. It allows us to simulate organs and body parts in different projections. This allows you to perceive the better knowledge of anatomy.

My overall impression of the project is positive. I met many new friends there. Every evening we had interesting meetings and discos. We got to know each other better through communication and common shared interests. Every day we learned many new and interesting things. It was something special. It wouldn’t be possible without good knowledge of foreign languages. After all, we live in a very dynamic time. Now thanks to the Internet, communication has become more possible. If you know a foreign language then the world is open to you.

So the story took place in October…

It is all about our trip to Poland.

It all started at 5 a.m. We came to the bus, said goodbye to our relatives, friends and set off on the road.

We arrived late night in town Morawica, at about 10 p.m.

During the dinner and afterwards we met our polish colleague students.

Since the next morning we had intense days, filled with a lot of fascinating stuff such as interesting acquaintances, becoming familiar with the polish culture, medical field and so on.

Every day we learned something new about the “unknown” for us country. Anyway, the Polish culture seems quite similar to Ukrainian.

As concerning the language, I can surely say that it is similar to my mother tongue and in most cases it wasn’t difficult to understand Poles.

Most often we spoke English as it is widely spoken in Poland.

At the end of every day we had a so-called “family” dinner, when Polish and Ukrainian students gathered around the table. We discussed the day we spent, told each other about our impressions, joked and shared our Facebook accounts. We also had classes every evening, the aim of which was to go through the incomprehensible for us words.

17

During the whole project the main slogan was “The integration of Ukraine with Poland”.

While staying in Poland we’ve visited a medical school and several hospitals. We were truly impressed by the equipment of hospitals.

It is all new and modern. Every single doctor in the hospitals is highly qualified and knows their specialisation with every last detail.

We also had some evening strolls.

We walked around a beautiful and a truly European city Kielce, which is by the way a sister city of Vinnytsia since the twentieth century.

On the seventh day we had an official meeting, where the head of our college Andrievskiy I.Y. and the head Renata Antos signed the documents about the collaboration of our colleges. That was a great step towards European integration.

We also had a first aid competition. Both Polish and Ukrainian students took part in it.

Writing on behalf of the students of Vinnytsia Medical college, I can say that we were absolutely satisfied with the trip. We gained a wide experience and learned a lot for ourselves.

Danylo Zabolotny Museum In Kryzhopil District, Vinnytsya Region, there is a picturesque village of Zabolotne. It is there, in the former village of Chobotarka, that Danylo Zabolotny, a prominent microbiologist and epidemiologist, was born, lived and is buried. Now, in the village there is D. Zabolotny’s Memorial Museum consisting of the house in which the future scientist was born, the garden and the tombs of Danylo Zabolotny’s and of his wife.

The interior of his parents’ house has remained as it was during his life; so have his personal belongings. In the old-fashioned bookcase, there are books with his remarks and with bookmarks made of dried flowers. At the window on the table, there is a Zeiss microscope, Academician Zabolotny’s companion in his journeys throughout the Asian deserts and Manchzhuria.

On the peg, there is an old straw hat. In one room, there are wax figures of D. Zabolotny and a peasant that came to him asking for medical advice. In D. Zabolotny’s home, everything remembers their master. Coming back from faraway expeditions, the scientist always used to bring home exotic plants and trees.

Even now, alongside with Ukrainian poplars and cherries, there grow Karelian birch and Ussuri maple. In 1966, an exposition building was constructed nearby. Its pieces tell of this great devotee of science’s life, in detail introducing its visitors to D. Zabolotny’s life and work. His scientific essays, documents, photographs, geographical maps, his parents’ and family photos, original copies of his synopses as a student and first scientific works are exhibited there.

21

The visitors of the Museum may learn of the record of Danylo Zabolotny’s experiment, when he putting his life at stake proved the possibility of human anti-cholera immunization. This experiment became a historic landmark not only of the cholera research, but of the development of microbiology on the whole. Another important stage in Zabolotny’s life was his struggle against plague. In the showcases, original materials telling on the fight with this disease are presented, and a panorama Danylo Zabolotny in the antiplague expedition.

D. Zabolotny had to fulfill a historic mission to become the founder of epidemiology as a national science. That is why, the Museum presents documents, monographs, reports, photographs that are evidence to this. In 1928, being the President of the All-Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, Danylo Zabolotny founded the Institute of Microbiology and Epidemiology. Today it is that Institute of Microbiology and Virology that bears his name. D. Zabolotny’s death was a hard loss for the academic community and the public at large. Hundreds of obituary telegrams sent by scientific institutions and scientists from throughout the world proved extraordinary significance of this Titan of Science.

The paths leading to D. Zabolotny’s Museum have never been overgrown with grass. His grateful offsprings keep on learning from him to serve unselfishly to their nation, to love their homeland, and to labour to all people’s benefit.

Pirogov’s Estate in Vinnytsia Nickolay Ivanovich Pirogov (1810-1881), the prominent scientist, surgeon, educator and public figure spent the last years of his life in a charming spot of Vishnya (the Cherry-tree) near Vinnytsia (it is an urban district of the town now).

In 1866 he built a house, a pharmacy and a small hospital, where he rendered medical assistance to inhabitants.

In 1947 (9.09) here the Pirogov's Estate Museum was opened there.

The museum comprises a house, a pharmacy, and the family vault, where lies Pirogov's embalmed body. In the pharmacy visitors can observe the numerous pieces of pharmacy equipment and medicines that Pirogov used to implement in his own medical practice, as well as antique weights, copies of signatures (or prescriptions) and pharmacy textbooks.

Another highlight of the museum are sculptures of Pirogov, a pharmacist, a paramedic, some townspeople and a priest that were created by Britan, a sculptor from Kyiv. Nearby the pharmacy there are plants that were used by the pharmacists to prepare medicine. Also there is lab, where Ukrainian and Russian scholars repeat embalming of Pirogov’s body. The local conditions are perfect for storing the body.

A splendid park covers an area of 16 hectares of the estate. There are many trees planted by Pirogov himself there.

More than 1500 of them are on display These are manuscripts, photographs, private belongings, surgical instruments, paintings, sculptures, printed works, etc.

In the library there are 7000 books and magazines, including a large number of Pirogov's works, the majority of which are rarities about his scientific life and activity. The literature concerns the history of medicine.

The museum enjoys great popularity not only in our country but also abroad. The number of visitors, Pictures from N.Pirogov's including foreign visitors, has already exceeded six preparations.

F.Shlater, 1832, million.

Derpt On one of the walls a marble plaque reads: «N.I. Pirogov lived here from 1866 to 1881». The surgeon's bust by the sculptor Krestovsky is erected in one of the allies of the park. The exhibits of the museum depict chronologically the scientist's life and activity.

Le musée-propriété de Nikolas Pirogov Le musée-propriété national de Nikolas Pirogov qui est disposé dans le parc pittoresque à la périphérie de Vinnytsia ce n’est pas seulement la curiosité non la plus intéressante de la ville, mais aussi un objet important du patrimoine culturel de l'Ukraine.

Nikolas Pirogov – le savant éminent, le médecin talentueux, l'inventeur de l'anesthésie et de la chirurgie martiale, le fondateur de la Société de la Croix Rouge et la personnalité publique visible. Il est extraordinairement difficile de surestimer son dépôt dans le développement de la médecine, de chirurgie en particulier. En 1847 Pirogov a inventé la narcose éthérée et l'a appliqué pour la première fois pendant la guerre dans le Caucase.

Par la suite à l’aide de cette narcose le chirurgien éminent a passé de centaine d'opérations réussite sur le champ du combat.Encore une invention de Pirogov, sans lequel il est impossible d’imaginer la médecine d'aujourd'hui, – la gouttière plâtrée pour la fixation des fractures. Le médecin l’appliquait largement pendant la guerre de Crimée : alors cela a permis de réduire aux dizaines des fois la quantité d'amputations des blessés. Il y a peu de gens qui connaîssent que la blouse blanche désinfectée c’est la trouvaille de Pirogov, pour laquelle, à propos, on l’a trouvé le fou et même on l’a placé à la maison d'aliénés pour quelques jours. En outre le savant a introduit une série de nouveaux pratiques médicaux et les méthodes des opérations chirurgicales.

24

En 1859 Nikolas Pirogov a acheté la propriété à Vinnytsia.

Ayant ennobli le territoire voisin, il a construit la pharmacie et l'hôpital non loin, où il traitait gratuitement les gens et faisait les opérations très difficiles pour ce temps. Aujourd'hui une ancienne propriété, où le savant connu a passé les dernières 20 années de la vie, s'est transformée en musée amusant avec l'exposition saisissante.

La structure du musée est unique dans son genre. Au centre de l'ensemble de musée – la maison, où vivait Nikolas Pirogov: ici s'installe la vaste exposition, dont chacune de 12 parties raconte de la période définie de sa vie et l'activité.

L'attention particulière est donnée aux ouvertures géniales du savant, qui ont aidé à sauver mille des vies humaines. Dans la propriété on peut voir le cabinet, où travaillait Nikolas Pirogov, ses objets personnels, les livres, les instruments de chirurgie, les tableaux.

Encore un objet du conglomérat de musée – l'église du St Nikolas avec le tombeau, où repose le corps embaumé du grand savant. Contrairement à l'opinion répandue, ce n’était pas lui, qui a voulu garder le corps de Pirogov, mais sa femme qui l’aimait fort.

Enceintes de pierre de Vinnytsia Au début du XVIIe siècle, il y avait à Vinnitsia des représentants catholiques de la Compagnie de Jésus, qui après avoir obtenu le soutien financier d'un des dirigeants de la ville, ont construit un monastère sur les rives pittoresques de Boug méridional.

Le monastère présentait un ensemble de l'église, d’un collège et d’une habitation collective, les moines ont entourés le bâtiment des murs massifs avec des meurtrières et des tours de combat. Ces puissantes fortifications qui servaient de protection contre les raids des Tatars, ont été nommés les enceintes (moury) pour leur grande inaccessibilité.

Le monastère Jésuite a joué un rôle important dans l'histoire de Vinnitsa – c’était non seulement un complexe principal de la fortification de la ville, mais aussi un important centre culturel et éducatif. Plus tard, un autre monastère était construit par ordre catholique des Dominicains, il était près de cel des moines Jésuites. Sur ce territoire on a construit une église catholique, qui dépassait l'église des Jésuites par le luxe et la magnificence de la décoration. Par la suite, le monastère Dominican avec l'église est devenue une partie du complexe de défense.

Dans le même temps l'un des murs de l'église s’est effondré partiellement. Peu de temps après, la construction du monastère était commencé, on a décidé de là placer une école mâle et femelle. Pourtant, après de nombreuses reconstructions et renouvellements les bâtiments monastiques ont perdu leur aspect d'origine. Après un certain temps le monastère Dominican était aboli et on a transformé son église en une cathédrale orthodoxe de la Transfiguration (Preobrajenskiy). Aujourd’hui c’est le principal relique orthodoxe de Vinnitsia et l'un des plus brillants embellissements de la ville.

Malheureusement, la plupart des murs qui protégeaient les monastères Jésuite et Dominican était détruit. À présent il n'y a qu’une des tours et ses parties dépendants des fortifications qui sont préservées. Aujourd'hui, les restes de fortifications et les bâtiments intacts du monastère font partie du complexe historique et architectural " Enceintes de pierre de Vinnytsia".

La place du collège ancien des Jésuites est occupé aujourd’hui une archive impressionnante de la ville et les cellules monastiques s’est transformées en célèbre musée régional de Vinnitsa. Il est célèbre pour sa collection unique de pièces, y compris les rares articles des périodes de scythes et sarmates, une vaste collection numismatique, une collection d'armes et de minéraux.

En plus dans le musée il y a un squelette de mammouth trouvé dans la région de Vinnytsia.

Some facts about Jews of Vinnytsia The history of Vinnytsia Jewry encompasses over five centuries, which in the context of the historical realities of Eastern Europe is a long time indeed. The Jews of Vinnytsia, one of the centers of Judaism in Ukraine, passed through terrible ordeals – from the Haidamak uprisings to the Holocaust – but tragedies made a strong people even stronger. Many Jews of Vinnytsia emigrated and became famous abroad, but many also remained, realizing their talents in their de facto homeland. Read about the most interesting people and events connected with the Jewry of Vinnytsia in the new chapter of our project «Jewish Ukraine» Jerusalimka The first documents mentioning the Jews of Vinnytsia date to 1532. Of course, the following century did not help the growth of the community – in the Cossack uprisings a number of Jews were killed, but the Jews who survived were still able to return to the city and revive the community. As in many other large towns, in Vinnytsia the Jews had a whole quarter to themselves, which was named Jerusalimka.

The quarter began to form in the late 18th century – initially it was planned as the poor trade part of the city, but as the lion’s share of craftsmen were Jews, it automatically became Jewish. Incidentally, it would be incorrect to consider this district a place where only the poor lived – in Lower Jerusalimka there were indeed poor hovels, but in Upper Jerusalimka wealthier people lived. Today this quarter is one of the historical parts of the city, in which the Baroque color of a Jewish village has been preserved.

Zavarkin and son Vinnytsia has the museum shop “Pan Zavarkin and Son”, the history of which is directly related with Jewry. In 1900 the entrepreneur Moisei Fligeltub came to Vinnytsia with his family and rented an apartment on the second floor of the tenement building of the brothers Gelblu. He immediately realized that this was a lively place, there were a lot of people in this part of town and they would spend their money there. Some time later, Fligeltub bought an apartment which he lived in, and then acquired another apartment on

30

the first floor, for a shop of colonial goods. Sales went very well, especially as this was the first establishment of its kind in the town, and the well-off bourgeoisie liked tea, coffee, foreign species and nuts very much.

Fligeltub also started to sell colonial goods wholesale – he signed contracts in Kiev, Moscow and Petersburg. But because of his religion not everything went as smoothly as he wanted – some important Christian merchants refused to do business with a Jew. In 1904, Moisei Fligeltub had himself christened on the advice of his friends (they say that he only changed his faith nominally and remained faithful to Jewish tradition) and became Matvei Zavarkin –so that nothing would stop him from developing his business.

Zavarkin even supplied tea, coffee and chocolate to the imperial court. Evidence has been preserved in the archives which confirms this fact, with letters of gratitude from “Her Majesty”. Before the revolution the Zavarkin family was one of the wealthiest in Vinnytsia, but then decided to emigrate – first to Paris, and in 1922 to the USA. Like all other shops and stores, the Zavarkin shop was nationalized, and nothing has remained of the family’s wealth in their former homeland.

Several centuries ago the new owner of this building, learning of its history, decided to restore justice and once more open a retro-style tea shop, which also became a museum – with a gramophone, old scales, kerosene lamps, numerous teapots, samovars and posters from the early 20th century.

The conqueror of tuberculosis Zelman Abraham Vaksman (1888–1973) was born in Vinnytsia region into the family of the small-time landlord Yakov Vaksman. His parents valued a good education, and so firstly they hired home teachers for their son, and then sent him to the Odessa high school.

When Vaksman turned 22, he emigrated to the USA and continued his education – he graduated from an agricultural college, gained a master’s degree in science (in 1915), and then began to study the chemistry of enzymes at Berkley

31

University in California and received the title of doctor. After this he began to work with Rutgers University in New Jersey – in 1925 he was appointed to the position of associate professor, and in 1931 became a full professor.

In 1932, the American national association for fighting tuberculosis asked to Professor Vaksman to study the process of the destruction of the Koch bacillus in the soil. It was this task that was the beginning of a grandiose scientific study which ended with the discovery of the streptomycin antibiotic.

In 1952, for “the discovery of streptomycin, the first antibiotic effective in treating tuberculosis”, Abraham Vaksman was awarded the Nobel Prize for physiology and medicine. The preparation itself was discovered by Albert Schatz, who worked under Vaksman’s leadership, but Vaksman developed the method for finding this medicine, which was taken into account by the Nobel committee. “…looks like Marlene Dietrich, and writes like Virginia Woolf” Clarice Lispector (1920–1977) was born into a Jewish family in Chechelnik in difficult times for the formation of the new country (and for Ukraine they were especially difficult). When she was just two months old, her parents emigrated to Brazil, where Clarice spent her childhood. In her youth she lived in Europe, from 1944 to 1949, and in the 1950s she moved to the USA for several years. Lispector devoted herself fully to literary work – she worked as a journalist and translated Agatha Christie.

Clarice Lispector was incredibly beautiful, and many artists painted her portrait, including Carlos Skliar and Giorgio de Chirico. She had at least 10 portraits of herself in her house, but she didn’t like to be photographed. The American translator Gregory Rabassa, who translated works by Julio Cortazar, Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Lispector, said of her: “I was amazed to meet this rare woman who looked like Marlene Dietrich and wrote like Virginia Woolf.”

The Story of Street Art Modern graffiti began in big cities in the United States in the 1970s. In New York, young people wrote their names, or 'tags', in pen on walls around the city.

One of the first 'taggers' was a teenager called Demetrius. His tag was TAKI 183. He wrote his tag on walls and in stations in New York. Other teenagers saw Demetrius's tag and started writing their tags too. Soon, there were tags on walls, buses and trains all over New York.

Then, some teenagers started writing their tags with aerosol paint. Their tags were bigger and more colourful. Aerosol paint graffiti became very popular in the 1970s and 1980s. It appeared on trains, buses and walls around the world.

In the 1990s and 2000s, a lot of graffiti artists started painting pictures. Some artists' pictures were about politics. Other artists wanted to make cities beautiful and painted big, colourful pictures on city walls.

Graffiti in Galleries In some countries, writing or painting on walls is a crime. Sometimes, graffiti artists have problems with the police. In other countries, artists can draw and paint in certain places. For example, in Taiwan, there are 'graffiti zones' where artists can paint on walls. In S達o Paulo in Brazil, street artists can paint pictures on walls and houses.

Their pictures are colourful and beautiful. Some tourists visit S達o Paulo just to see the street art!

In Bristol in the UK, there is a street art festival in August every year. Artists paint all the buildings in a street. Lots of people come to watch the artists and take photos. You can see exhibitions of street art in some galleries too.

There have been exhibitions of street art in galleries in Paris, London and Los Angeles.

Who are the Artists?

Some street artists have become famous. Here are three stars of the street art world: • Os Gêmeos are twin brothers from São Paulo. They paint big, colourful pictures of people on buildings. In 2007, they painted a castle in Scotland!

• Blek le Rat is from Paris. He is famous for painting pictures of homeless people in big cities.

• Faith47 is from Cape Town in South Africa.

She paints big, colourful pictures of people and animals. She likes painting in different places and you can find her work on pavements, postboxes, buses and, of course, on walls!

The Future of Street Art Many street artists use the internet to look at photos of street art from around the world.

They communicate with other artists online and share ideas. Some street artists are famous and you can see their pictures in galleries. We don't know about the future of street art, but it is here to stay for sure!

You Light Up My Life So many nights, I'd sit by my window Waiting for someone To sing me his song So many dreams I kept deep inside me Alone in the dark But now you've come along And you light up my life, You give me hope, to carry on You light up my days And fill my nights with song Rollin' at sea Adrift on the waters Could it be finally I'm turning for home Finally a chance To say: "Hey, I love you" Never again to be all alone And you light up my life You give me hope, to carry on You light up my days And fill my nights with song.
