I was walking around SF the other day and I happened to walk by this little guy. I wasn't sure if it was an Os Gemeos piece or just someone trying to imitate their style. It's on a business that teaches Capoerira (That Afro-Brazilian art form that combines martial arts and dance) Any opinions on the matter? I thought the nose looked a little off for an Os Gemeos piece, that's why I was suspicious to call it out right.   gonetomorrowsf.com/?p=525It's definitely done by Os Gemeos as they did this piece when they did their show at Luggage Store Gallery back in 2003. Also, they did a piece near the well known Clarion Alley before it was being buffed out. Also, well-hidden away from the public is a nice piece somewhere in San Francisco which I won't reveal here.  |

They were [/url]in Lithuania[/b][/url] to track down some relatives recently. Apparently, their grandfather immigrated there from Brazil. Of course, they couldn't resist leaving their mark.    |

Nothing wrong in posting this. Not sure if everyone feels the same way, but I typically don't like an artist's earlier works... So, this one is not that attractive to me. |

agree, this piece doesn't have the vitality (colors) and shading that separates them from other street artists. cool, I feel a bit better now... (posting links... ) |

dot dot - it's is quite interesting, but for me it looses a lot of what I enjoy in their work which is the overall composition with their crazy world that they've made up. I'm just lost with this...is it a charity piece?

I'm just lost with this...is it a charity piece? it certainly is something unusual. and yes it's a charity work... auction in Brazil for... "OsGemeos The artists performed an intervention on a version of 1m60 sculpture. The custom pieces will be auctioned next Thursday, made, day 24, with proceeds going to the AACD (Assisitência Association for Handicapped Children)." I quite like it (i.e. in passing) - but it doesn't quite rival the work from the other day. |

I think their mural works were even better..I think they didn't have much time to work on the canvas at Retnas studio. Yes, matching jackets...  |
