The "Festival Internacional de Arte Contemporáneo SESC_Videobrasil, organised by SESC - Servicio Social de Comercio and the Associação Cultural Videobrasil", has invited Olafur Eliasson as a special guest for its 17th edition which will start on 30 September. The curator is Solange Farkas. "Your body of work"is the title of this body of work which comprises 10 installations in Sao Paulo. It looks like an amazing work and I'd love to see it.
