Viva Los Videos! Grafica Fidalga

Coolhunting visits Grafica Fidalga, a printing press in São Paulo, Brazil:

Called “lambe lambe,” the lightweight paper used for the posters was designed for wheat-pasting and, before São Paulo’s “clean city” initiative, could be found throughout the city. Thanks to the gallery Choque Cultural, who regularly makes posters for their shows with Grafica Fidalga, they’ve been able to stay alive but they could still use more help. If you’re in the market for an inexpensive poster that will put any slick offset version to shame, email the gallery’s director Edu (esaretta [at] gmail [dot] com).

(Thanks for this hot tip go to F.O.P. KVH)

    Agreed, it’s definitely better in HD. Our bloggin’ machine doesn’t let us embed the widescreen.
