WHAT IS A SPACE INVADER?

A Space Invader is a small mosaic pasted by artist Franck Slama on street corners in more than 70 cities around the world.

Franck Slama is a French street artist and mosaicist, born in 1969. He was trained at the Beaux Arts in Paris.

He began installing his unique little works – illegally – in 1996. There are about 1,430 of them in Paris and more than 3,700 worldwide. They are called “small urban viruses”.

These mosaic collages represent fictional characters (Spiderman, Mario Kart, etc.), cartoons (Smurfs, etc.) or real characters (Picasso, Serge Gainsbourg, etc.), animals, funny objects or everyday objects. A little monster is Franck Slama’s signature and can be found on many Invaders. He continues to stick it all over the world. It is a street art that is differentiated by the material used (small colored or black and white mosaics).

The place chosen by the artist does not necessarily have anything to do with the theme of the Space Invaders, even if we find, for example, Dr. House next to the Pitié Salpêtrière hospital or a small Pablo Picasso not far from the Picasso Museum (in the Marais).

Other artists, pseudo-artists or budding artists have been inspired by Franck Slama.

THE “FLASH INVADERS” APPLICATION

It is a free application to download on your mobile (Flashinvaders, A reality game by INVADER).

This Flash Invaders application allows you to scan the Space Invaders spotted on the walls of Paris.

You get a score in number of points. The number of stitches is different depending on the size, location or difficulty in finding it.

You get a score that will evolve according to the number of Flash and you will be ranked among all the other players. FLASH WITH THE FAMILY

If they drag their feet (for the little ones) or have their eyes glued to their phones (for teenagers), challenge them! Find Space Invaders in Paris by walking around and flash them with your mobile app.
They will have their noses in the air and the time will seem shorter if they balk at the ride.

You quickly get caught up in the game! And there are some all over the world (if you are traveling with your children)

Be careful, not all of them are real Invaders. Happy hunting! THE GUIDED TOUR “WHEN STREET ART TELLS THE STORY OF THE MARSH”

It is ideal with the family, from 8 years old. It lasts 1h30 (for a route of about 2km) and is led by a tour guide.
