Argentina & Colonia (Uruguay)

When I was dissapointed by the amount of streetart and graffiti in both LA and Lima I was really impressed with how much our argentinian friends has managed to produce in the streets of Buenos Aires (in particular), Mendoza & Salta.
Ive only been to a couple of towns with the equal amount of great stuff to look at. Berlin beein one of them! So here you have a few photos of what I found while in Argentina.

I think this chick was fallowing me, she keeps appearing in several of the photos!
Probably my favorite piece from Argentina!

One night, one of my friends in BA asked me to join her for an exhibit called 'Hollywood in Cambodia'. I got drunk and can't remember the artist, but it was a good one:




And one day I bumped into (accidently) an exhibition with one of my favorite photographer, Steve McCurry. http://www.stevemccurry.com Nice too see the photos blown up...

There was also a couple other peaople exhibiting, once again, I have forgot the names! :S


I also took a trip to the beautiful smalltown of Colonia in Uruguay. And even there I found some graff! Yay.

Back in Buenos Aires.

And then to Mendoza.


Once I got to Mendoza I had to do the bicyle wine tour. And one of the stops where at a liqour factory. So I started the day with a heavy Absenth shot! My bicycle never went straight after that! :)


In Salta I found this Cum* ripoff and that was about it...

...but I got to jump over some pools on a saltlake, so cant complain!


I even found (sticked it up myself) this Souledoutstudios/MauMau sticker as far up as 4170 m. above sealevel!

And this was on the back of the sign!


There was a lack of streetart in Iguazu falls, but loads of fnatastic butterflies and a fucking huge waterfall!!!


Next update will be from Brazil.
