Italian artist and activist Graziano Cecchini dumped 500,000 multi-colored plastic balls down Rome’s famous Spanish Steps. Balls in Italian is "Palle" which also can mean "untruth". Cecchini said ”This is an artistic operation which documents through art the problem that we have in Italy. They’re always telling us lies, both the Left and the Right.” He was arrested for "interrupting public services." He did piss a lot of people of, but had many tourist in a happy frenzy. I would have LOVED IT!!!! I wish I was there so bad yo. LOL. This isn't something new for the artist, three months ago he dyed the Trevi fountain red (google that). He's a jokester with a message. i so dig. 
Peace!
