Haas & Hahn


The dutch artists Jeroen Koolhaas and Dre Urhahn embarked on a journey to bring outrageous works of art to unexpected places, starting with painting enormous murals in the slums of Brazil together with the local youth. You can contact them at info@favelapainting.com

Painting #1 Kid with Kite

Their first mural was finished early 2007. It depicts a boy with a kite and is located in the heart of Vila Cruzeiro, a notorious slum in Rio de Janeiro.

Painting #2 Rio Cruzeiro

In October 2008 Haas & Hahn finished a 2000 square meter Japanese Style River, painted on a concrete construction, running right through Vila Cruzeiro. The design is made in co-operation with Amsterdam based tattoo artist Rob Admiraal. The artwork was featured in all brasilean media as well as on CNN, FOX and Al-Jazeera
