As a cross-cultural development project, the artists painted five walls at the Holcome L. Rucker School, in the Bronx New York. The artists were visiting the Jonathan LeVine gallery for their debut exhibit, Ruas de Sao Paulo: A survey of Brazilian Street Art, which ran from February 17 to March 17, 2007.
All the students that were involved in the Mural Project, assisted in the painting of the murals, leaned about Brazilian art, culture, and wrote about their experiences. Students will continue the project, painting murals at another school in a different location.
The students that were selected for the project showed strong interest in graffiti and the arts. It was developed as a way for them to learn, and be recognized for contributing to their community.

You're making a fellow Hiphop-Head very proud. I'm sure some would say you need more text, but I think the pictures say a lot.
This is a great depiction of the worldwide reach of graffiti, which goes to show the reach of Hiphop.
Hello Jarrod,
Are you fluent in Portuguese yet? Lol
I’m so impressed by the effort you have put in this project. I like how on this post you illustrated the international exposure of Brazilian artists.
Keep up the good work.
