Entre Pindorama – Hutúz Festival: Video program and Closing Event
Within the project Entre Pindorama, Künstlerhaus screens two video programs about the Hutúz Festival at Rio de Janeiro. The program is presented by Rafael Dragaud, co-founder of the festival. The first program is about the young hip hop festival itself, the second program contains special examples of Brazilian music videos.
Entre Pindorama deals with the idea of Antropofagia, a cultural movement within Brazialian modernism that used the metaphor anthropophagy to describe the interaction with “the other”. The project Entre Pindorama examines a possible transfer of these ideas.
Brazilian hip hop is probably the most recent form of Antropofagia. It literally “swallows” elements from US-American hip hop and mingles it with traditional Brazilian elements such as Samba.
The closing event of the project Entre Pindorama takes place on December 10, 2004. There will be a party at Künstlerhaus, German and Brazilian DJs will put on music: Festa de Encerramento – DJ Fragstein and 01 (Subtítolo/Sao Paolo).
