Description
Marcelo Cidade creates uncanny situations, which appear as if by chance, inquotidian urban contexts. His process is that of a trickster or playful interventionist,
and his actions produce subtle and poetic transformations in his home city, São
Paulo, and similar public environments. Although his works may appear materially
or conceptually off-handed, they are formally rigorous, politically loaded, and
amplify one’s awareness of the specific thrills of urban space.
