Italian street artist, engaged, prolific, excessively well rated in the high spheres of Art, Blu prefers anonymity, dirty walls and geographic scattering. Coming from Bologna, he developed a style characterized by figures between comics, electronic games and childish productions. A drawing serving a libertarian and transcultural ideology. Because limiting his artwork to the only technical specificity would be simplistic. His pieces location have a role as important.

Director, big fan of Blu and conscious of his particularity, Lorenzo Fonda decides, in 2006, to dedicate him a film and, once the italian production agency Mercurio convinced, to take him on a road-movie through South-America. A several months shooting willing to relay the places influence on the artist approach and to perceive its metamorphosis. The movie, displayed online for a month, presents the encounters, the frescoes, and the improvised exploration of Lorenzo Fonda and Blu through five countries (Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Argentina) whom initials joined form the entitled: “Megunica“. At last, animations created from Blu’s drawings,  ensure, during the whole film, transitions between the States.
