A while back, some people from Rede Bahia, the local Salvador TV station, came to the ICBIE to interview Pietro for their Saturday morning program Aprovado. It just so happened that a big meeting of the Salvador grafita artists was underway when they arrived, and that made their visit to our Institute all the more impressive. On November 6th a 8 AM, their program was aired, and can be seen online by following this link:

The program focuses on Ribeira, and there are plenty of shots of our beautiful neighborhood. Pietro’s interview is interspersed with Stefano Barbi Cinti’s videos of our Ribeira das Artes festival, which do a great job of illustrating our central role in the cultural life of the cidade baixa.
