How to Make a Subway Map with John Tauranac
Hear from an author and map designer who has been creating maps of the NYC subway, officially and unofficially, for over forty years!
One might expect such a patriotic tribute to have been painted by oh, say, an American… but not the case: Sao Paulo street artist/muralist Eduardo Kobra is responsible for this technicolor display of historical affairs. Good thing too – that red white and blue was getting old. The commissioned piece was unveiled on Independence Day 2012 and can be found at 1255 La Brea Ave in Los Angeles. There’s a Starbucks across the street to grab a drink and hang out with it for a minute.
Statement by Mr. Kobra:
“My intention is to provoke and delight, with bright colors, showing once again that art and democracy, remain fundamental to art and life as a whole” – KOBRA
Who: street artist/muralist Eduardo Kobra
Where: 1255 La Brea Ave, Los Angeles, CA
