People from outside of Brasilia often dismiss Brazil's capital as
socially divided, boring, corrupt, and emotionally cold. Apparently
its founders created not a vibrant capital, but a cultural
wasteland. However, as Sophia Beal argues, Brasilia's contemporary
artists are out to prove the skeptics wrong. These
twenty-first-century artists are changing how people think about
the city and animating its public spaces. They are recasting
Brasilia as a vibrant city of the arts in which cultural production
affirms a creative right to the city. Various genres-prose, poetry,
film, cultural journalism, music, photography, graffiti, street
theater, and street dance-play a part. Brasilia's initial 1960s art
was state-sanctioned, carried out mainly by privileged, white men.
In contrast, the capital's contemporary art is marked by its
diversity, challenging norms about who has a voice within the
Brasilia art scene. This art demystifies the capital's inequities
and imagines alternative ways of inhabiting the city.
