The Beautiful, Larger Than Life Soccer Balls Adorning Mexico City

As Mexico prepared for a summer of football including the 2016 Rio Olympics and Copa America Centenario, Mexico City called on artists to adorn 64 massive soccer balls along the Paseo de la Reforma, a wide avenue that runs across the heart of the capital.
