\u201eParadise is here, hell is here, madness is here, passion is here.\u201c This statement of the renowned Brazilian composer and singer Francis Himes about Rio became Peter Bauza\u2018s motto when he photographed the people of Copacabana Palace. The six blocks of this uncompleted housing compound\u00a0have become a place of shelter and hope for some 300 \u2018sem teto, sem terra\u2019 families \u2018without roof or land\u2019. Peter Bauza\u2019s superbly perceptive pictures form a highly poetic tale of their lives, their everyday moments of joy and sadness, their needs and illusions, but also of beauty and strength and the co-existence community that has emerged in these precarious circumstances. Copacabana Palace is a typical example of the fight for survival of millions of Brazilians in similar situations while the government goes through one of its most severe political and economic crises, yet spends billions on infrastructure for world sports events.<\/p>\n
EXHIBITIONS<\/strong> Multi-award winning \u2013 most recently with the World Press Photo Award \u2013 and shown around the globe: Copacabana Palace is the story of an abandoned housing project in Rio de Janeiro, named after the famous luxury hotel on the even more famous Copacabana Beach.
