H...I really wish I could have seen this exhibition. Hélio Oiticica had many plans for future exhibitions that he never got to do. He made many many note about them...my favorite was simply as follows–<br /><br />(these are Hélio's notes translated exactly as he wrote them):<br /><br />IDEA 2<br /><br />AUDIENCE–drinks COKE<br /> (coke would be provided continuously)<br /><br /><br />So many of his unrealized works were just like that. Notes that described actions of simple and poignant means. I always imagined a room full of people drinking Coke non-stop until they died....and Hélio could sign some certificate of authenticity on all of the dead bodies.<br /><br />Oddly enough, Cildo was in tune with Hélio's passions and continues to be critical yet welcoming to the world that greets us every morning...The Eye That Writeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11244269728408401393noreply@blogger.com
