''Is stupidity a crime?''


oil & acrylic on canvas - 35 x 24 cm

This painting is critic and sarcastic about the decision of greek people to vote a nazi friendly party (Golden Dawn) during the greek parliamentary elections on the 6th of May 2012 (Golden Dawn received 6.97% of the greek electoral body) and on the repeating elections on the 10th of June (6.92%), giving them 18 representatives in the greek parliament.

The initial inspiration was a poster on the walls of Belleville district in Paris, showing a policeman kissing a homeless guy with the quote ''Poverty is not a crime''.
