Lucky man! I think the exhibition will be on 10am to 6pm on Saturdays (it's only over the summer that they close at weekends). I forgot to mention, it's at 536 West 22nd Street and I understand there will be a published catalogue to accompany the show.

'Silence of the Music' | Os Gemeos, by cerulean on Sept 9, 2016 1:51:49 GMT 1, Just returned from the show. In a word: "magical"! There's no way to capture it in photos. Two of the rooms are a completely immersive experience with murals covering all four walls and the ceiling. I'm fortunate to live within walking distance but it's worth traveling if you can make it.
Sadly, there is no exhibit catalog/book nor any show cards (no wine either) - . Sometimes show cards seem to appear after the opening night. If so, I'll grab a bunch for forum members when I go again with friends.

'Silence of the Music' | Os Gemeos, by siveone on Sept 10, 2016 13:14:35 GMT 1, What a great show! The twins defenitly at its best. Great that they turned the rooms into colored spaces like they did earlier some years ago in Brasil! Love their work since back in the first graffiti days. Which I could see the show in person.
Does anybody know, if there will be a book of the show available?

I asked the gallery assistants, who were crowded around the entry desk area with a few Os Gemeos books (not of current show, single copies, none of them for sale - wasn't really sure of the point) and they said no, unlikely. I mentioned the press release said there would be to which they seemed surprised.

edit: the scene on 22nd Street was insane today. Hundreds of photographers/paparazzi and people filming. All sorts of fashion shows and stuff. Was a trip. I guess it's fashion week in NYC

'Silence of the Music' | Os Gemeos, by Feral Things on Sept 23, 2016 20:49:58 GMT 1, Os Gemeos have done the following interview with Time Out about the show:
You’ve titled this show “Silence of the Music.” What does that refer to? Otavio Pandolfo: It comes from when we started out as B-boys in São Paulo—what we experienced while break dancing. When you’re totally into it, you feel like you’re in another dimension where everything suddenly goes quiet. You no longer hear the music being played. Instead, every noise you make becomes the music; every move you make becomes the dance.
The show seems to be made up of different installations meant to flow together. Is that right? Gustavo Pandolfo: Yes. We’ve got one space that’s like a temple, with a figure meditating in the center, and another that’s like a kid’s room with a music machine repeatedly playing the same song, differently each time. So together, these and other rooms are meant to be seen as one big history made up of many different histories.
You mentioned your start as break-dancers. When did you first discover hip-hop culture? OP: In the ’80s. It was very surreal to us, very different from what we knew. But it also made some sort of sense because we grew up in São Paulo, which looks like New York in the ’70s. You could say it looked like New York back in the day.
You’re known for doing outdoor murals. Do you consider yourselves to be street artists or fine artists? GP: We are just artists. If we want to paint outside, we do. If we want to paint in the studio or make animation, we do. Our work can be everywhere, because doing one thing doesn’t mean you can’t do another. We respect all of these different things.
Besides hip-hop, how does Brazil itself figure into your work? OP: It’s everywhere. We reference the music, the food, the clothing, the climate, the people, the colors, the vibe. We are Brazilians; we were born there and we live there.
If we could look inside your heads, what would we see? GP: It’d be like seeing a movie. Every single thing we make is like pressing the pause button on a video player. In our heads, it’s all the same movie.
