Has anyone seen the show? I finally walked over there to peep the new annex @ the Bronx Museum. There's a gang of Brazilian attwork on display about the "Tropicalia" movement.A Cool display of rekkids from that era that I wouldnt have known about w/out Soulstrut. Some artist shows an article about Gal Costa........ Sabadaba.............have you checked this yet?

    If this is the same thing they had in London at the beginning of the year (which it sounds like) then I really liked it. I loved all the old movie posters and whatnot that they had. There was also some incredible 3-d poetry by some dude who's name eludes me at the moment. It was neat to see Os Mutantes in London there as well.

    Amazing stuff. I went on Day 1, which might have been a mistake because there was MAJOR technical trouble with the archival videos (DVD transfers skipping/stopping/behaving badly). I hope they got that ironed out.
    Overall a great show. The catalogue is worth it, too, for in-depth essays on the cultural/political context of the movement.
