A representation of Buenos Aires, which is clearly not as real and touchable as the one of Jorge Luis Borges, or Hemingway’s Havana, but it will give you the image of a highly inspirational city, seen through my ever wondering eyes.

Graffiti love
I truly enjoy every expression of art, and street art is no exception to the rule.
The art scene in Buenos Aires is one of the best in the world, and walking through the barrios of San Telmo, Palermo Viejo or Bocca, you'll find the work of some brilliant local talents.
For some of you, graffiti is defined as the simple gesture by which a no one is painting public walls, but for others it's something extremely inspirational.
The mural art is the expression of the city's vibe and pulse.
Strolling through the streets and large boulevards of Buenos Aires, you'll find representations of national heroes as Eva Peron and Diego Maradona, sketches and drawings of the football victories, and pictures which show the passion of the locals for tango and sexual conquers.
Apart this common graffiti, what strikes as truly impressive, are the ones who try to recreate through vivid colors and powerful images, some passages from the national history. Extraordinary is a representations of the horrible events which took place in Argentina between 1974-1983. An entire playground shows the Madres de Plaza de Mayo.
