Japanese pop artist Yoshitomo Nara was arrested by the NYPD this week for drawing on a subway wall

Other “victims” of his precious vandalism took the opposite approach: Earlier that evening Nara was all up in Niagara bar in the East Village, drawing shit all over the walls, and what did they do? Put plexiglass over it. That shit is valuable. This proves that drunks are smarter than the NYPD. (via Gawker)

Here's a lovely piece of intervention by the Dutch artist Helmut Smits. A minor act but profoundly marvelous.
