FANZARA, SPAIN - Fanzara is a small Spanish country village whose handful of mostly elderly residents were once so bitterly divided that their allegiance to one camp or the other determined which bar they frequented.

So heated became the local tussle over plans to build a toxic waste dump that it aroused old Civil War-era rivalry and prompted neighbors to cross the street to avoid one another.

But, today in Fanzara, the bad blood is almost forgotten and the village has been revived, thanks to street artists from around the world.
