Out of all the places in the world to paste, that is a pretty risky looking spot!
(Although I admit I haven't been to Brazil and got most of my education from City of God plus the extras on the DVD)

JR In The Flavelas Of Rio, by They call me Stephen on Aug 20, 2008 0:30:02 GMT 1, That is amazing and must have taken some balls.
I've been to the favelas in Rio and actually had a gun held to me when leaving a club that the hostel had taken us to. True story.s**t scary at the time but has now become one of my favourite drinking stories! ;D

JR In The Flavelas Of Rio, by Deleted on Aug 20, 2008 0:50:44 GMT 1, JR has raised the bar. Took my breath away. Its Scale is awesome yet at the same time it is humane and intimate. None of the recent facile political dross from Fairey and co has ever been as political as this in bringing the plight of real people to the fore.
brilliant

Too true.
I cant get over the sheer scale of JR's work...it's normally huge but this is truly taking it to another level!

JR In The Flavelas Of Rio, by Rsyok on Aug 20, 2008 9:28:05 GMT 1, It is fantastic work, takes a while for the scale to sink in. I remember walking past his shoreditch eye and almost being knocked over when I realised what is was.
(funny I posted a similar thread yesterday @3pm must have the missed forum rush hour)

With JR and Adam Neate decorating Rio like this over the last few months would it be fair to say that we have a new Mecca for street art?
Move over London, Bristol, New York
