The acclaimed Brazilian artist duo warmed up the London winter with their tropical wonderland exhibit: FERA, a pop-up exhibition in London showcasing the artworks of internationally famed Brazilian duo of illustrators Bicicleta Sem Freio (“Bicycle Without Brake”). Curated by Charlotte Dutoit from JUSTKIDS, the ephemeral exhibition opened to visitors in REXROMAE gallery from the 5th through the 8th of March.
Following their recent international large-scale public artworks across Europe and America in major cities likes London, Berlin, Miami, Las Vegas or Los Angeles (where they painted the largest building ever in DownTown), Bicicleta Sem Freio aka Douglas de Castro and Renato Perreira are preparing for their first ever solo show in London UK, where they will translate their signature style of highly expressive line work and vibrant color palette writing into fine art works with confidence.
“FERA”, translates from Portuguese to mean wild or savage, intends to present on canvas and paper their unexpected juxtaposition of imaginary, rock’n’roll and often provocative subjects. Their sophistication is revealed by the layers of ideas they picture and the references they suggest, showcasing an ironic pop iconography.
