Summary

"This catalogue accompanies the first full US retrospective of the Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica (1937-1980) in over two decades, organized by the Carnegie Museum of Art. It explores Oiticica's most acclaimed works, such as the "Parangolés" and the installation "Tropicália," as well as his involvement with music, literature, and response to Brazilian politics and the social environment. Essays by US and Latin American writers cover the entirety of his career, from his immersion in the 1960s counterculture to his life and work in New York City and final return to Rio de Janeiro, with special emphasis on his New York period between 1971 and 1978"--
