Martin Olav Sabo Bridge Graffiti, Minneapolis

Graffiti on the Martin Olav Sabo Bridge in Minneapolis reads, "Theres more to life than being really, really ridiculously good at graffiti. Not really..." This bridge, named after a Norwegian socialist politician, spans the Mississippi River and connects the Seward neighborhood to the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood. It was originally built in 1923 as a railway bridge and was later converted for pedestrian and bicycle use. The bridge has become a site for public art and expression, particularly following the Minneapolis Uprising in 2020.
