The beginning was in 2014, the end is art, the means is the spray can.
The Institute represents the consolidation, in Brazil, of the urban art festival conceived in 2014 in Minsk, Belarus. Named “Vulica Brasil” (pronounced “Vúlitsa Brasil”, “street” in Belarusian), it has already held five editions in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019. During this period, 50 large murals popped up, in addition to sculptures and other forms of public art left as a legacy to that capital. Additionally, educational seminars, charitable activities, and an urban plan for "Rua Brasil", in the city center of that city. It is a permanent handshake between the creative communities of both countries.

iVB is attitude turned into art, a multi-language do-it-yourself experimentation, combined with civic and cultural action, sustainable urbanism, science, geometry, kinetics, 3D optical illusion, reactivation of public spaces, social responsibility and humanistic ecumenism.
iVB is a platform for the production of cultural events, exhibitions, festivals, and socio-environmental projects by the Vulica Brasil Family of artists. The physical and digital collections exhibit contemporary and timeless art, with an emphasis on urban art/graffiti/street art/muralism.

iVB was created based on Urban/Public Art, then expanded to other artistic languages. Over the years, we have incorporated social, environmental, urban and educational projects into our portfolio.
