You can find more amusing pictures of the ankle height sculptures in Wroclaw, Poland. I chose this one because it shows you the size of the sculpture.

In Philadelphis you can do a self-guided tour, following a map guide.
You can see street art in countries you hope to visit, and countries you cannot currently visit. Decorative and permanent street art, controversial banned, damaged, painted over by mistake (UK) or lost street art. I recently saw street art in New Zealand, even in small suburban corners of Auckland. Street art online in Wikipedia is from Australia, Israel, European countries and many other countries.
