Négritude: Brazilian Film Series
Négritude: Brazilian Film Series - WEEKLY SCREENING SERIES, Curated by Tânia Cypriano. Every Friday at 6pm. May 29 // June 5 // June 12 // June 19 // June 26 // July 3 // July 10 // July 17 // July 24. The Brazil section of the exhibition Négritude is created around a program of documentary films and videos. Films are able to capture the face of reality as it is being lived, and Afro-Brazilian expressions of Négritude are “alive.” Négritude exists in the rhythms of samba, the drums of worshippers of Mina and in revolutionary calls of funk in Rio’ slum. It swirls around in possession and in the minds of geographer Milton Santos. Négritude is also alive in the traditions followed by many Brazilians, some of which have already disappeared in its birthplace: Africa. The Brazil section of the Négritude exhibition will explore the country’s identity from the point of view of peoples who live in the light of the past, not its shadow. At Exit Art, 475 Tenth Ave, New York. For more information please visit: http://www.exitart.org/site/pub/exhibition_programs/negritude/screenings.html
