JK (Juscelino Kubitsckek de Oliveira) was a poor orphan boy from Minas Gerais, got to study because a priest and became a doctor and worked in the civil war of 1932. Sara, the daughter of a politician fell en love for him and the politic adventure was only begun. He became mayor of the capital of Minas, governor of Minas and then he became president of Brazil. During elections campaign a man of this region asked him if he would have courage to move the capital from Rio to central Brazil, a project dreamed since 18th century. And he promised that, and created a modern city in the wilderness.
This is a curious building, very small, a mix os sculpture and museum. It has the shapes of a T, here we can see only the base, on its interior you have the texts, wrote in marble, of old politicians, during centuries, saying about necessity to build a new capital in central Brazil. You can see the face of JK facing the Three Powers Square.
Why this supermarket cart is here ? Curiously, watching the news I discovered after Covid-19 pandemic a man had a small enterprise that entered in bankruptcy and he was cleaning cars in the square to survive.

Durante a campanha presidencial um homem dessa regi縊 lhe perguntou se ele teria coragem de trazer a capital do Rio para o centro do Brasil, um sonho imaginado desde o s馗ulo 18, e ele prometeu fazer isso e ergueu uma cidade moderna no meio do sert縊.
Essa constru鈬o � uma mistura de pr馘io e escultura, tem formato de T, vemos aqui apenas a base. No interior est縊 textos escritos em m疵more por velhos pol�ticos explicando a necessidade de se criar uma capital no centro do pa�s.
Aqui vemos a cabe軋 de JK olhando a pra軋, o carrinho de supermercado pertence a um pequeno empres疵io falido que perdeu tudo com a pandemia de Covid-19 e ent縊 lavava carros na pra軋 para sobreviver.
