當你聽到貧民窟，你腦海第一個想像的畫面是什麼？灰灰暗暗，髒髒兮兮？也許從來也不想踏入。荷蘭藝術家Jeroen Koolhaas與Dre Urhahn，決定想要改變這樣的形象，想為貧民窟的人們帶來一些創意，一些樂趣。他們在一些貧民窟進行一「Favela Painting」（貧民區繪圖）計畫，於2006年開始，與當地人合作，用藝術創造將貧民窟彩色化，樂趣化，消除原本的偏見！
看看里約Santa Marta這貧民窟前後的差異。Jeroen Koolhaas與Dre Urhahn用創意來消除偏見，為貧困的人們的生活注入更多的色彩！這週是World Creativity and Innovation Week，你是否也可以運動你的創意為你的生活周遭帶來一些改變？

In 2006, the Dutch artist duo Haas&Hahn started deaveloping the idea of creating community-driven art interventions in Brazil. Their efforts yielded two murals which were painted in Vila Cruzeiro, Rio’s most notorious slum, in collaboration with local youth. The artworks received worldwide coverage and have become points of pride in the community and throughout Rio.”The Firmeza Foundation supports the creation of striking artworks in unexpected places. It collaborates with local people to use art as a tool to inspire, create beauty, combat prejudice and attract attention.”
