Los Angeles is claiming its place as the top spot in the world for street art. It is also earning a name as the top place for street art being stolen, and this new Space Invader that just went up in Culver City is now gone missing.
It seems the piece only lasted a day.
Interesting how they got this piece off the wall, since Invader is known to use uber-strength cement bonded sealant to put his pieces up.
And we are curious as to why take this piece, period? Once it is taken off the wall, since there is no backing for the whole piece, all that is left is a stack of tiles. Sure, you can say that it is a Space Invader, but so could anyone after a trip to Home Depot.
Still, keep your eyes peeled on Ebay for this to show up.
**UPDATED: with close up pic of the taken piece.**
