SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST

Above_Dejando_Wooster.jpg

Fresh of the heels of tours of the U.S. and Europe, ABOVE has spent the past 6 months painting his way across South/Central America.  Starting in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil and ending in Mexico City, Mexico, the artist has documented his travels in a four part series of videos, the first of which is available today. 

From ABOVE:

“DEJANDO LO MEJOR PARA EL FINAL.” Is Spanish for “SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST.”

This Word/Play was painted in Bogota, Colombia in an area where every building around this “Last” building was being torn down and demolished for new construction.
Bogota is going through a transitional period “rebirth” as many of the older buildings are being torn down. By now this building is probably already destroyed!
