Abstract
Cildo Meireles was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1948. Since the late 1960s, he has created sculptures and installations that function as open propositions in which the audience is invited to become acutely aware of the experience of their bodies in space and time—not only as physical beings, but as psychological, social, and political ones as well.
