Out of the blue while strolling through Roberto Burle Marx: Brazilian Pioneer at the Jewish Exhibition
hall in New York, one might hear a delicate surging of waves, blended in with the mumble of an outside
swarm. A portrayal in Portuguese, both spoken and sung, will float breezily in and out. This is the
soundscape of Plages, a 2001 video by craftsman Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster. Shot according to an
airborne point of view above Copacabana Ocean side, the film shows the famous Rio de Janeiro
waterfront not in its typical sunlit quality but rather in the misleadingly lit nocturne of New Year's Eve
2000. Celebrators overflow in the space among city and sea, at the time between one year and the
following, moving in unique examples in the midst of the tremendous plans spread out by Roberto Burle
Marx.
