And I did it again. I’m not Britney Spears, obviously. Street art taken by assault the streets of Buenos Aires and is here to stay. For years this artistic expression comes fascinate and that’s why the spreads on my Buenos Aires blogs and argue with total conviction.
The growth in number of artists (Grolou, Gualicho, Pum Pum, Cobrinha, Lean Frizzera) and quality of their work has been exponential.
Buenos Aires positioning in the top 10 worldwide in such urban interventions.
There are 700 images obtained and published this year in the Hostel Colonial blogs. Why? Because it has been one of the conveners proposals made by our staff.
In this first post, this Buenos Aires neighborhoods: Palermo, San Telmo, Almagro, Balvanera, Belgrano, San Nicolás, La Boca, Monserrat.

I really did not plan to write another post about Street Art in Buenos Aires, at least this year, but such is the relevance and so great is the qualitative leap from the artists, that reading a note in Time Out, I decided to play almost completely with some additions to the undersigned.. The movement grows and creativity raises, you know, if you ever see a bald guy, photographing a wall of Buenos Aires, may ask – Hey George, are you?
“Argentina´s infamous economic collapse of 2001-2 is about as far back as anyone looks when it comes to the history of Street Art in Buenos Aires; but when today´s urban creative hotshots were still in short trousers, their precursors were clawing their way out of the black hole of suffocating military dictatorship of 1976-1983, inscribing the city´s walls and monuments with in-your-face message of dissent.
By 2001, however, disillusionment whit the shambles left by former President Carlos Menem´s messy regime saw a legion of enterprising young artist take to the street to recreate from their defeated city an offbeat fantasy word of whimsical, refreshing frivolous creatures and color splashes.
And though the political discord remains, graffiti in Buenos Aires has since developed level of sophistication and organization that demand respect, even from the fierce political graffitists who vie with them for wall space across the city.
All-star graffiti girl Pum Pum, whose repertoire includes naughty little princesses and chubby chirping birds, predicts that the current global financial situation will bring even more would-be artist out onto the streets, in a attempt to uncover their own experimental and creative sides.
It´s not all about self-discovery, though. Local multi-artist collectives such as DOMA and Face have steadily built up their brand empires, which now includes marketable graphic design, video, animation and apparel, besides their signature playful street characters. While they continue the attack on Buenos Aires surface, their careers have taken a more commercial path than most self-respecting graffiti artist would be willing to admit. Grolou, Gualicho, Lean Frizzera and Grothesque are my favorites.
Either way, lend a few online minutes to
MUTO, the jaw-dropping stop-motion animation created in 2008 using the buildings and pavements of
Buenos Aires, amongst other cities, as a canvas for the astonishing graffiti creations of European whizz-kid
Blu; then get off the web and hop on a urban art tour with
Graffitimundo for a stroll and peek at some of
Palermo´s finest on-the street masterpieces.”

Buenos Aires, Hostel Colonial, Street Art, a constant relationship of admiration in this Buenos Aires blog. Personal or group expression. New Pop Art?
Color and ideology on the walls of Buenos Aires, about to be prohibited and penalized. Zero Tolerance? I bet it will come hundreds of new artists. Graffitis, tags, posters, stencils, signs…
I thought he had written and published enough photos in the 2 previous post, but no, the walls of Buenos Aires expressed a strong message and I want to listen with my creative eyes.
This post is visually very extensive. The other half of the images will be published tomorrow. Remind to schedule.

I have always been sure that the walls of a city talk, in many possible ways. Buenos Aires would not be an exception, the walls are a symbol of times and someway I have tried to depict the things I see in the streets of my city and the walls of the hostel, by street art or the frame selection, using the collage technique, made by myself and my wife Veronica, frames that give some life to the Hostel Colonial since 2004.
Now, well, I will introduce to you a little review of Buenos Aires walls, some are pictures of interiors, like the Bond Street Gallery, a tester of trends that join different urban tribes together and some others refer to a places history in Buenos Aires, my paintings that decorate the Almacén Suipacha walls, one of my restaurants.
Art, politics, business, services, the wall changed by the social actor. Look at this, Palermo, Belgrano, Downtown (San Nicolás), Devoto, San Telmo…Hostel Colonial, Buenos Aires, Argentina, South America.







Sempre estive convencido que as paredes de uma cidade falam e em vários sentidos possíveis. Buenos Aires nao teria porque ser a exceçao, as paredes sao um sinal dos tempos e em parte tentei retratar de alguma maneira isso que vejo nas ruas da minha cidade e nas paredes do hostel, seja com street art ou com a seleçao de quadros, que utilizando a técnica de collage, decoram as paredes do Hostel Colonial desde 2004 e que foram realizados por minha esposa Veronica e por mim.
Agora bem, aqui lhes apresento uma pequena recompilacao de paredes de Buenos Aires, algumas sao em interiores como a Galería Bond Street, um tester de tendencias e conglomerado de tribos urbanas e outras remetem à historia de um lugar e da mesma Buenos Aires, sao pinturas minhas que decoram as paredes do Almacén Suipacha, um dos meus restaurantes.
Arte, política, negócios, serviços, o muro intervenido pelo ator social. Olhem isso, Palermo, Belgrano, Centro, San Telmo…Hostel Colonial, Buenos Aires, Argentina, América do Sul.

Toujours je été convaincu que les murs d’une ville parlent à plusieurs sens possibles. Buenos Aires n’avait aucune raison d’être l’exception, les murs sont un signe des temps et, d’autre part je essayé de représenter en aucune façon que je vois dans les rues de ma ville dans les murs de l’hostel, soit avec le street art de la rue comme avec la sélection des tableaux, en utilisant la technique de collage, décorer les murs de l’Hostel Colonial depuis 2004 et ont été faites par mon épouse Véronique et moi-même.
Maintenant, je présente ici une petite collection de murs de Buenos Aires, certains sont comme l’intérieur de la Bond Street Gallery, un testeur de tendances et de l’urbanisme conglomérat de tribus et d’autres se réfèrent à l’histoire de l’endroit et le même Buenos Aires et ce sont mes peintures qui décorent les murs de l’Almacen Suipacha, un de mes restaurants.
L’art, la politique, les affaires, les services, le Mur parlée par l’acteur social. Regardez ce, Palermo, Belgrano, Downtown, San Telmo …. Hostel Colonial, Buenos Aires, Argentine, Amérique du Sud.
