Os (freakin) Gemeos! These Brazilian artists have fascinated us since they became cult graf heroes in the pages 12oz. Prophet in the mid-nineties. Since then, they've blown up to Barry McGee levels working with Deitch, hip europeans, that company with the swoosh logo, and other wealthy institutions. However, like McGee, you'll always be reminded of their awesomeness by a spontaneous street sighting or some ridiculous mural in Coney Island. I could be wrong, but this might be the first official monograph of their work, published on occasion of their first museum show in the Netherlands. The book is divided into sections: public work juxtaposed with street portraits, sketchbook pages, and installation images. Full color, square-bound softcover, approximately 170 pages. Limited to 2500 copies.
