Just weeks after the legalization of graffiti (and re-criminalization of pixa\u00e7\u00e3o) in Brazil<\/a>, there’s more news on the split between these two subcultures. Some pixadores were not too happy with the commodification of street art, so they got together to tag up an entire gallery, walls, paintings, prints and all. Read on to see the flyer they distributed to organize the event. (Via Wooster Collective<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Update:<\/font><\/b> Wooster Collective got the photos from the Gallery’s Flickr stream<\/a>, and if you follow that link you can see a long list of comments from Brazilians who are fans of either pixa\u00e7\u00e3o or graffiti\/street art. There may be some interesting discussions brewing in there, so if I find any choice bits I’ll try to post translations here later.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here’s the flyer:<\/p>\n

And here’s what it says:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Art Attack 2<\/h2>\n

The Path to Revolution<\/h3>\n

We are going to invade with our protest art a shitty art gallery (Culture Shock), which, as per its ideology, gives space to underground artists – well, then it’s all ours anyway – and we will declare total protest.<\/p>\n

Meeting point = Pra\u00e7a Benedito Calixto, Rua Cardeal Arcoverde @ Rua Lisboa, next to metro stations Clinica and Sumare.
\nTime: 3pm, Saturday Sept 6th, 2008.<\/p>\n

Protest slogans:
\nLong Live Tagging
\nArt as Crime
\nCrime as Art<\/p>\n

All for the Tagging Movement
