brazilian artists otavio and gustavo pandolfo (also known as 'os gemeos') and graffiti legend futura have just completed an 80-feet-high mural on the wall of a new york school. the project was driven by new york-based creative studio akanyc and street art website 12oz prophet with support from nike (tying in with its world basketball festival) and paint company mtn colors.

piroud's art is most at home on city streets, unashamedly amusing passersby... from his ephemeral seats that recondition the trunks of chopped-down trees (some of which have lasted up to two years before being removed), to the heart-shaped filters he applies to traffic lights, piroud is not afraid of creating amusing art. a favourite piece is the tennis court he painted onto a neighbouring roof (above). he is, he says, attempting to "put fiction in reality" in his pursuit of making "contemporary art about the city". more of his work is at starnocity.com.
