\"Paranagu\u00e1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Assiduous readers of this blog have heard his name come up often, because our friend Paranagu\u00e1 has become a very familiar face at the ICBIE.\u00a0 Now we all have an opportunity to get to know him better!\u00a0 For the last quarter century, this talented artist-photographer has combed the streets of Salvador, documenting secret Bahian cultural treasures hidden in the oddest places, and this search blossomed into a precocious passion for street art, a fascination that has grown over the years, following the the city’s own ascendency, as it became a world-class graffiti capital.\u00a0 Last February, his works were featured at our Ribeira das Artes<\/em> festival, then in April and May, he followed Pietro and the Salvador grafita<\/em> artists on their tour to France, Germany, Spain and Italy, snapping thousands of gorgeous pictures, not only of the artists and their works, but also capturing fascinating glimpses into European life, set amongst its monuments and in its museums.\u00a0 Since his return to Brazil, he has frequented ICBIE courses in English and Italian, and loves to find new opportunities to show off his art to an ever wider audience.<\/p>\n

He has opened a well-stocked website, www.jfparanagua.com<\/a>, where, after a delightful introductory flash video, you can access his galleries in both Portuguese and English.\u00a0 Don’t miss the great video that documents the 2nd Graffiti Meeting in Acaraj\u00e9 (described in this blog on August 12).<\/p>\n

He has also announced an important exposition of his works, to be held at the big Lapa Shopping Center in Salvador from the 25th to the 30th of this month.\u00a0 The show represents a retrospective of Salvador Street Art since 1983 (which is more or less when most of the city’s present graffiti stars were born).\u00a0 Here is his official press release: practice your Portuguese!<\/p>\n
