Retna + Louis Vuitton

Using street art as advertisement or promotional material is becoming more and more popular these days. Sometimes this is good, sometimes this is very very bad. Here we have an especially good example of how this can be done right, in my opinion. Artist Retna was commissioned by Louis Vuitton to paint their building, this is what he came up with. For those of you who don't know Retna, don't worry if you can't read what he has written. No one really can, it's sort of his thing. He made up his own calligraphy / language and has been doing it for a long time.
