My commentary

The installation Nós was originally assembled in 1977 at the Museum of Contemporary Art at the University of São Paulo, managed by Walter Zanini, in Espaço B for artistic experimentation. It  carried among what could be seen, a whisper of voices calling for people who suffered in one way or another, victimized on both sides, power and revolt.

Once ready, the installation was the stage for the performance Corpo que Cade
(01; 02; 03) and scenary for the video Nós VT.
It always seemed to me that it would be a good idea to reassemble it plus what
it generated: performance images and the video.

Francisco Salas, director and curator of the PM8 Gallery in
Vigo, Spain, in his effort to make history of what seemed relevant to him, did
so.
