Levi's Blows Up Berlin Walls in Attempt to Look Cool

Watching things explode on camera is really cool. Just ask Michael Bay. Or Levi's and Wieden + Kennedy Amsterdam. The agency turned to Portuguese street artist Vhils to help create murals in cultural hotspot Berlin promoting the brand's "Go Forth" campaign, which declares its denim to be the "Uniform of Progress" and its wearers to be pioneers. After etching the faces of a couple local artists and an activist into city walls using a hammer drill, Vhils filled in the recesses with plaster and gunpowder charges, then set them off and filmed the portraits emerging from the debris.
