The artists talk about their work Faz que Vai which received one of the three Sesc Art Collection Acquisition Awards at the 20th Contemporary Art Festival Sesc_Videobrasil. In four acts, dancers combine steps of frevo, a traditional Carnival dance of Pernambuco State, with others typical of contemporary rhythms like funk, swingueira, electro, and vogue. The artists state that “in reality we’re talking about an industry that exists despite of our artistic milieu. They are in another milieu; they have autonomy, they have power. What kind of power is that? We are investigating that.”
