- Discover the artist Hélio Oiticica - one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century.
The Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica challenged the traditional boundaries of art. He made the viewer an active participant in his work, now seen as a major moment in the development of contemporary art.
Hélio Oiticica was part of the Tropicália movement in Brazil, spanning the visual arts, music and film. The term Tropicália was first given to a pair of installations by Oiticica, a song by Caetano Veloso, and an LP released in 1968, featuring artists such as Gilberto Gil, Gal Costa and the psychedelic band Os Mutantes.
The 1960s saw an explosion of cultural creativity in Rio de Janerio and São Paulo as Brazil’s military regime tightened its grip on power. Tropicália became a way for artists to expose the contradictions of modernisation under such an authoritarian rule.

I love Hélio Oiticica!!! He is a one mine favourite artist from Brazil!
Vou até baixar, esse vídeo reúne em HD cada preciosidade. Coisa assim a gnt guarda no web-baú!
so sad how he died before the military dictatprship ended. Even sadder how in the current political scenario in Brazil we seem to have regressed to the values that created the dictatorship and rejected those that ended it
Ant. C.Vianna don't be so tragic.
Amazing! Love Hélio's wok!
Amo

Funny he said Brazil did not have European culture, but was subjugated to it....then he moves to London 🤫...
there was a dictatorship in Brazil so he had to move... pelotudo
Se estivesse em portugues seria melhor.
This art is identity politics
What a loser's take
Chico buarque married a 13yr old girl..think about that.
Roy Batty N6MAA10816 Wut? Pretty sure that’s not true
what is wrong with you people... get a book@@mattkkr
Nobody married a 13 yo. There is a alegation that Caetano used to date a 13 yo on the 70's. So did Polanski, Bowie and Jagger. I guess this was on fashion by that time.
Total garbage.
Get a hobby.
Yes. And the "geometrical painter" was a drug lover. He paid hommage to to "Cara de Cavalo" - a drug dealer - with the work "Seja marginal, seja herói". It was told by a friend of him, who also lived in NY, that Helio was a drug dealer himself.
