Ice has finished painting a cool new chimpanzee on the front of an abandoned house in Caballito. The purple primate is the sixth in a series of seven monkeys that correspond to the coloured bands of a television test pattern that appear when a TV has lost its signal.
Purple chimp – monkey magic
In 2008, Ice painted his first monkey which was a violet chimp, and then the green and red ones. Only one other monkey still exists as the rest have been painted over. Read more about the series of amazing monkeys in our interview with Ice
