The telephone booths are useless and disappeared in several countries. However in Brazil, where a lot of people have no money for the mobiles, the public telephones are still needed.
Based on a creative initiative that mixed art and communication, a Brazilian telecommunication company has invited several artists to express their art in 100 phone booths spread out in the city.
The project named "Call Parade" was quite successful by involving the population and educating people to respect and take care of the devices. After that the phone booths stopped to be vandalized and destroyed as well as the city got new colours and fun.
