Principles, power and art.

We already talked about the vibrant streetart / grafitti scene in Brazils biggest city Sao Paulo early this year. At this time we also had to recongnize Sao Paulo’s mayors “cleaning the city law” - that was used to remove all advertisings and billboards out of the city scape. After that, they began removing even all great grafitti pieces from several streetart hotspots throughout the city by overpainting them grey. Now, just a couple of weeks after the TATE MODERN in London was showing work of Os Gemeos and Nunca, the city of Sao Paulo changed their mind and creates a list of grafitti art to be preserved. If you’re on the list - you’re hot! If not you will be overpainted grey as time goes on.
