JR pieces in Rio for Olympics, by Pipes on Aug 14, 2016 10:12:41 GMT 1, "A Sudanese high jumper towers over Rio de Janeiro, arching over a 25-story building in the Flamengo district. A triathlete plows through the waters of Botafogo Bay, mid-stroke, her wingspan as wide as a city bus, while a giant diver shows us the soles of his feet as he leaps from the stone jetty in Barra da Tijuca. Meanwhile, a truck disguised as a camera is circling the city, and a fat silver moon is taking shape atop a favela cultural center. It looks like JR is back in town."

JR pieces in Rio for Olympics, by smegma on Aug 14, 2016 16:34:56 GMT 1, although i think they are gorgeous i would have liked to see some commentary highlighting the socioeconomic factors in the country and not just glorifying the games.
edit: i did not notice the placement in the favelas. well done, jr.
