Escola Vidigal is a school of art and technology for children located in the Favela Vidigal of Rio de Janeiro. The school, founded by artist Vik Muniz, is a unique space offering those aged 4-10 years from low-income backgrounds a chance to try art and learn about technology at an early stage. The main concept is to give access to the development of abstract thinking, including body and emotional expression and to create a new model for teaching.
