BRAZILIAN STREET ARTIST MUNDAN¹O HAS FIRST SOLO SHOW

From SÃO PAULO, here are a few pieces from Mundan¹o ’s first solo show, “Cidade Reciclável”(Recycable City)

MUNDAN¹O said the opening night was perfect, “A lot of people, artists, Japanese food, hot weather, cold beer, caipirinha, 5 big canvasses sold and a lot of projects running at the same time. I wish you and other friends from NYC could have been at the opening last night, – the same way I want to be in NYC to see personally the exhibition of fresh pieces on the streets.”

Themes from the show, and often in Mundan¹o’s work, include issues of economic justice, environmental pollution and waste, recycling, bicycling, consumerism, and witty playful monsters with faces of the ancestors, every watchful and observant.

Mundano likes to use street art as a way of a social revolution. He says his characters are imbued with messages so people can see and think about the problems he addresses.
