They have been working in Brazil and Berlin since 2011. They discovered the new film genre “musical documentary,” not music documentary, and focus on how cultural forms in the past adjust to the changing economic situations. They presented their works at 32nd Bienal de São Paulo (Brazil, 2016), Sculpture Projects Münster (Germany, 2017), Art Gallery of York University (Toronto, Canada, 2018), Berlin International Film Festival (Germany, 2018 and 2019), etc. They represented the Brazilian Pavilion at the 58th Venice Biennale (Italy, 2019).

Artwork Number :: A10

Title :: Swinguerra

Year of Production :: 2019

Featuring three groups of dancers from a northern suburb of Brazil, the video footage highlights not only their unique dance styles and self-written lyrics, but also such societal elements as race, gender, identity, and economic circumstances. Acclaimed at the Venice Biennale in 2019, the film is an ensemble drama of contemporary youth, portraying how they vividly free themselves from oppression and powerfully express who they are through dance. The title, Swinguerra, is a coined word that combines swingueira, a style of Brazilian music and dance, with guerra, which means “battle.” For this exhibit, the artists present the film in a special installation at an ice-skating rink.

Exhibition Venue :: Plena Miyagi Ice Skating Rink
