Hélio Oiticica: Parangolé

An in-depth look at the Brazilian Neo-Concretist's most iconic art form

This book offers an examination of the iconic Parangol s, or capes, used by Brazilian performance artist H lio Oiticica (1937-1980). Reflecting residual memory from the Brazilian favelas and carnival, the Parangol s are manifestations of ancestral rituals and the rhythms of the body and nature.
