Author Description

José de Arariboia is a relatively successful artist. His series of paintings about Rio de Janeiro has made some success, and he is about to set up his first solo exhibition. But everything changes when he is seen climbing the favela of Pavão Pavãozinho. Nobody knows what happens there. On the way back, an unexpected performance leaves people in delirium. What could have been a catastrophe turns into sensation. Filmed by the pedestrians, the event becomes a phenomenon on the internet, and Arariboia arms a partnership with Biribó, the hill trafficker, who is willing to help the artist in a new and daring idea. Merger of fierce satire and social critique, A Vista Particular is a book that pushes the absurdities of daily life to the limit.
