Working at Copan
Peter Friedl
Working at Copan collects interviews with workers and employees at Edifício Copan, a landmark modernist architecture in the center of São Paulo. Designed by Oscar Niemeyer and completed in 1966, it became the largest residential building in Latin America. As a historical building it embodies an era of radical political and economic changes within Brazilian society. In this book project, artist Peter Friedl deals with the work left over from the modern era.
