"I was invited to participate in the exhibit Made by Brazilians at the defunct Matarazzo Hospital in the city of São Paulo. I was born there and my father worked for the Matarazzos.
After I finished my installation Me and the Matarazzos, in which I denounced the Bandeirantes, I then read a catalogue text by the new owner of the property, Alexandre Allard, in which artists are favorably compared to Bandeirantes.
I then met with members of the Guarani community of Tenondé Porã in São Paulo and asked what they thought of Bandeirantes and artists.
A Guarani analysis of Allard's concept of the Artist as Bandeirante."
