Os Gêmeos ~ Prism Los Angeles

9:00 AM PST on February 28, 2012

Os Gêmeos, the Brazilian twins Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo, are best known for their fantastical and
expansive large-scale installations and murals. The main influence of their work comes from the
surroundings in which they grew up. They began to experiment at age twelve on the walls, objects and
materials in the megalopolis of São Paulo. This helped shape their aesthetic vernacular into a distinct and
recognizable style. Os Gêmeos work as one unit in every aspect of their creative process, from the paintings
to the more recent animation videos they incorporate into their installation environments
