Critics Review

“Osgemeos Endless Story takes you on a wild ride through the vibrant world of Brazilian graffiti, guided by the dynamic duo known as OSGEMEOS. Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo have been shaking up the international scene since their hip-hop days in São Paulo’s underground scene, armed with the philosophy that art should be a party for everyone. This book is your golden ticket to their eclectic portfolio, from murals to sculptures, all infused with their dream-inspired visual language. And with their first English monograph coinciding with their biggest US exhibition yet, it’s time to buckle up for an unforgettable artistic journey. Muito bom!“ — INDULGE“This fully illustrated 344-page catalog will feature nearly 350 illustrations and smartphone-enabled Hirshhorn Eye video activations, as well as original contributions by Isgro, Alan Ket, Peter Michalski and Marguerite Itamar Harrison, plus interviews with the artists by Jochen Volz and Chiu.“ — SMITHSONIAN.COM
