# Paint Attack Sao Paulo

The [massive paint attack](/massive-paint-attack-berlin/) which took place two years ago at Rosenthaler Platz in Berlin, was one of the most impressing urban art interventions I’ve seen so far in town. Organized and executed by Dutch performance artist **Iepe Rubingh** and his team, the so-called [*Painting Reality*](/painting-reality-berlin/) project recently was the force behind a similar paint attack in Sao Paulo...


## Painting Reality in Brazil


As a part of the *Baixo Centro Festival* which took place during the last week in Brazil’s biggest metropolis, a group of activists tipped out several buckets of colorful paint on a much used junction and started in that way the great process of an urban live painting, using cars, bikes and pedestrians as brushes, spreading the paint all over the streets! Again it’s just amazing to see how easily you can color your city and have a lot of fun.

Thumbs up!
