“GOOD ART IS ART FOR EVERYONE.
‍

Eduardo Srur’s work has branched out into educational initiatives since 2008, when he took more than 3,000 public school students on a boat trip down the Tietê River in São Paulo during the PETS exhibition.

In 2022, the artist launched the Natureza Plástica project. Since then, his artistic initiatives in socially vulnerable communities have involved more than 15,000 public school students and teachers, expanding access to art and encouraging reflection on social and environmental responsibility.

The goal is to promote environmental education and awareness through art, in dialogue with schools’ pedagogical practices.

Activities include lectures, training sessions, creative workshops, immersive experiences with technology, urban interventions, and exhibitions. The project invites students to collectively recreate, using plastic waste, iconic works by artists such as Van Gogh, Tarsila do Amaral, Leonardo da Vinci, Picasso, and Monet, among others. The artworks are later exhibited to the school community alongside works by Srur, highlighting the students’ creative process and bringing art, education, and sustainability closer together.

Since 2008 Srur has dedicated his career to teaching art and connecting the public with educational actions and attention to young people as a complement to his actions, interventions and artistic installations in public spaces.

As the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations, states. "Everyone has the right freely to participate in the cultural life of the community, to enjoy the arts and to share in scientific progress and its benefits."
