Pablo Picasso once said, “It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.”
And the quote appears to be the inspiration behind Brazilian artist duo OSGEMEOS’ latest exhibition “You Are My Guest,” which appears to be like a child’s wonderland running wild at Fosun Foundation through February 26.
“OSGEMEOS” is the Portuguese for twins. The artists, Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo, are twins.
Born in São Paulo, Brazil, in 1974, the brothers constructed their own unique artistic language through interaction and play in the early 1980s.

With bold colors, sharp lines and surreal scenes, street art from Brazil brings a different cultural feast to the audience in Shanghai this winter.
OSGEMEOS, a famous Brazilian street artist duo of twin brothers Gustavo Pandolfo and Otavio Pandolfo, opened their exhibition at the Shanghai Fosun Foundation on the last day of 2020. Titled “You Are My Guest,” the show will last till Feb. 26.
“It was difficult to put this show together when the whole world had to stop because of the pandemic,” Otavio Pandolfo told Xinhua during an online interview.
Due to COVID-19, the two artists could not personally present their work in Shanghai, nor could they participate in the exhibition’s offline planning and preparations. However, they created a network with staff members from the Fosun Foundation in Shanghai via e-mails and video links.
