Most city-slickers think of pigeons as ‘rats with wings’, but Julian Charriere and Julius von Bismarck feel differently. The two want to change people’s perception of these birds, so they spray painted some pigeons and let them loose during the 2012 Venice Biennal (without harming the birds, of course). The brightly-colored birds are quite a sight to see, but no matter what color they are, they’ll still poop on your head.

How can these birds possibly have been sprayed without harm? There must have been a point during the process at which they were very frightened. I’m not impressed. Even if you drugged them to spray them, it’s still not right.
