A street art Rubik's Cube version of the Mona Lisa is expected to sell for up to US$166,000 (RM683,500) when it goes under the hammer in Paris this month. Made from 330 Rubik's Cubes by the French artist Invader - famous for his ceramic Space Invaders figures inspired by the vintage pixelated video game - is called Rubik Mona Lisa. He has glued Space Invaders works to walls in more than 33 countries, and even inspired smartphone applications for fans trying to track them down. Rubik Mona Lisa will go on sale at Artcurial on the Champs-Elysees in Paris on Feb 23 as a part of auction featuring some of the biggest names in street art. A blockbuster Leonardo da Vinci show at the Louvre museum in Paris, which holds the Mona Lisa, finishes at the end of this month.
