Quoting the work of the Bulgarian artist Christo, who wraps up landmarks, bridges and beaches, Aguilar turned the Museum of Image and Sound into a humongous black plastic package. During the opening of the 4th Festival, the multimedia artist unpacked the museum building in an act designed to unveil the gaze. The moment also marked the re-inauguration of the recently refurbished building. The action stopped traffic at Avenida Europa for over an hour. Shortly after unwrapping the MIS, Aguilar incited audiences to engage in a marathon of short performances. Anti-Christo featured in the Festival program, in addition to a video show dedicated to the artist, organized by Lucila Meirelles and Walter Silveira.
