Glamurama ran into Vik Muniz on Thursday night, all dressed up in costume for the Gala of the City of Rio de Janeiro, and took the opportunity to talk about the candid declarations on Twitter after "Waste Land" lost the Oscar for best documentary to "Inside Job. "
* "I was just poking fun. I was not disappointed, no. I knew we wouldn’t win." How so? "Documentary is all about the theme and the winner’s is very present in American culture. And they’re the ones who give out the award… It was almost obvious, but we never lost hope."
* The artist is full of projects, but is keeping quiet about them. "There’s an exhibition and the book, but let it go. Better not say anything for now." Okay, then.
