Inside Hélio Oiticica
Directed by César Oiticica FilhoOiticica Filho, nephew of Hélio Oiticica, one of the most essential figures in the evolution of Brazil's revolutionary art-movements of the 1960s and 1970s, combines skillful research with his exceptional access to his uncle's films and documentation of artworks. The "Heliotapes"-audiotapes onto which the artist recorded ideas and "manifestations" from Rio de Janeiro, New York, and London before dispersing them to friends-make up the soundtrack of the documentary, along with terrific musical choices. With the addition of a treasure trove of images, this dynamic construction immerses the viewer in the universe of Hélio Oiticica, who guides us through the invention of his Bólides, Penetráveis, Núcleos, Parangolés, etc.
