"In a Queens Diorama, a Favela Comes to Life" - David González, New York Times, 29 September 2013 (original) (raw)

Abstract

“There has always been this industry of seizing on a local practice, calling it culture and turning it into something that becomes a commodity and spectacle,” said Mr. Angelini, who teaches at Mount Holyoke College. “What Morrinho’s doing with the bricks is more or less what hip-hop did with records in the verbal form, in terms of taking what’s around you and working and reworking it. They’re doing a material version of sampling.”
