Lomography Gallery Store Rio de Janeiro

If you build it they will come! The opening night was a total smash hit with nearly 600 people lined up to get in the doors. They poured in full of excitement to gaze at the biggest LomoWall in South America while sipping Caipirinhas. And even though their hands were full with biscoito globo and Brazilian empadinhas, no one was too busy to touch and paw at all the Lomography treasures on display.

There was a performance from our special guest band, Brasov, who came all the way from Eastern Europe in honour of Lomography’s Russian roots. The entire Gallery Store was their stage as they made their way through the crowd playing their Russian influenced, unique brand of music.
