SUSHISAMBA® burst onto the New York scene in 1999 and captured the cultures of Japan, Brazil and Peru through its food, music and design.

Graffiti Gone Global erupted into the art world in 2007, and showcased graffiti and street artists from these very same countries and beyond.

The “Eames Inspiration” collection made an impact on the art world in 2010, and SUSHISAMBA® is proud to own this iconic assemblage of classic furniture with street appeal.

And today we celebrate. We celebrate the global mission of GGG as it embraces urban contemporary art. We celebrate Fresh Produce, this year’s GGG exhibit, as it integrates food and art. We celebrate the international team of artists who have come together to put this show in motion.

We welcome our curator, Primary Flight. Books III Bischof and Cristina Gonzalez are the
creative geniuses behind this year’s theme Fresh Produce, which falls in line with the
sustainability SUSHISAMBA® is so passionate about. By introducing “live art participation” to this year’s exhibit with a farmers’ market installation, GGG visitors can buy everything from works of art to fruits and veggies.

We welcome Haas & Hahn, a Dutch duo who is recreating the Brazilian favelas right here in our exhibition. The artists’ colorful vision originated while working with the local youth in Rio de Janeiro during the “Favela Painting” project.

We welcome our ongoing partnership with Operation Design and its latest initiative, the “Door Project”: an art competition using doors as a canvas, where 20 prominent street and graffiti artists team up with students from the High School for Leadership and Public Service in New York City. The winning student will be named and their work exhibited this year at Fresh Produce. SUSHISAMBA® sponsored the competition and also the winner, who was flown in to attend Art Basel Miami Beach.

And we welcome the future: the future of SUSHISAMBA® as it expands into the international arena with our next location in the vibrant city of London; and the future of GGG as it becomes the most impressive collection of international graffiti and street artists.

Rising from the pulse of SUSHISAMBA®, GGG now has taken on a life of its own. Enjoy our show, enjoy Fresh Produce, enjoy art and enjoy life … today and every day.
