Being born and raized in São Paulo, Brasil ( yes it is with S ) i ve being exposed to a lot of street art. São Paulo is an amazing open air gallery. Street art makes the city look better, and its also a way for people to fell more active in these crazy metropoli where the "one" almost dosent exist ( today there are almost 18million living in São Paulo). But thats not the point!! I always being interested by these manifests in the streets and will post here some stuff i like.
Off course i start by the Twins ( Os Gemeos). The image i posted is a sample of there work.
see there work here
Actually go to these link that you will get to no a lot of the artists in São Paulo street scene.
Another amazing artist is Banksy!! He is not from São Paulo, his British. Take a look at these transmition at you tube about his lattest work in the Wall that divides Palestina and Israel.
Go to his website an check out the rest of his work. There is some great stuff. I recomend wacthing the Disneyland video and the indoors section. And also read the Manifesto.
Now to have some fun check 99rooms and tell me if you made it to the end.
To finish, an online resource for street art information. Wooster Collective. And the GRL ( graffiti research lab ). They are developing new ways to hit the streets, using diferent medias like video projections.
After a period with almost no posting....im back and will be posting new stuff in a regular bases. Would love to hear from you, if you have any suggestions, any links...please help me...add a comment
