Conceived in two chapters, for two cities, and for two unique spaces of modernist Brazilian architecture – the Museum of Modern Art (Museu de Arte Moderno), in Rio de Janeiro, and the Casa Modernista, in São Paulo -, the exhibitions of the artists Daniel Steegmann Mangrané and Philippe Van Snick are mainly intended to underline the dualism and simultaneity in the work of both.
If, for Daniel Steegmann Mangrané (born 1977), the artistic process takes place in the dialog between division and union, between geometric and organic forms, and between culture and nature, for Philippe Van Snick (1946), on the other hand, the conditions of material perception are determined by mathematical and arithmetical principles (especially in his early works), and more recently by the sensibility which, according to the artist, is a “form of mental perception”. In the work of both, the views and experience (physical, subjective, political) of the spectator acquire a provisional and fragmented character, and relate, kaleidoscopically, to the distribution of the elements in the surrounding world.
The two exhibitions bring together their own dynamic, and it is not necessary to see one to know how the other’s “story ends”. If they resemble anything, it would be an echo, the same sound heard differently.

Capital Memories presents a multimedia installation in which sounds and images interact, revealing aspects of the Brazilian’s capitals. The proposal to shuffle the established geopolitical division, diluting predetermined boundaries, has sounded out and amplified sounds, remixed and distributed in the pavilion. In this poetic, the emotional geography of these narratives is always in the foreground. The paths of this journey are like threads of memories that come loose and get tangled in new contexts.
Capital Memories records sounds, signs, rituals, feelings, places, habits, cultural traits and living spaces experienced by those born in the main cities of the country and lived their daily lives. These individual assets – memory sometimes fuzzy, emotional or critical – feelings of belonging to a place in time and space are socialized with the public revealing that the memory is dynamic. It is not stuck in the past, establishes links with the future and, above all, it is a collective force that unifies and form identities.

The exhibition 18th Century Rio, when Rio became the capitalproposes a visual path through which to enter this century of its history. In the 18th century Rio de Janeiro became the capital of the vice-kingdom of Brazil and effectively transformed into the city that we know today: a meeting point between culture and commerce, a centre of urbanity and the symbol of Brazilianness across the world.
From 18th century Rio, from the Rio of gold, baroque and rococo, from the slaves of Valongo and from the palace of the viceroys, survivals remained. Of the Rio that was destroyed, what is ungrateful heritage? Certainly it was in the 18th century that Rio ensured its aesthetic fame. The marvellous city unites natural beauty with urban beauty, an idea recurrent in adverts, political proposals and even criticisms. Also at that moment, the black population expanded, although always on the margins, and the natives, so important in the struggle for possession and foundation of the city together with the Portuguese, simply disappeared from records of Carioca development.
Rio de Janeiro is a place privileged by nature, but it is also a consequence of its complex and contradictory history. The exhibition seeks to enter these issues through MAR collection of works and other institutions such as Convento de Santo Antônio and Fundação Biblioteca Nacional.

Immateriality is a group exhibition held at SESC Belenzinho, curated by Ligia Canongia and Adon Peres, consisting of 22 works, signed by 10 Brazilian artists – Brígida Baltar, Carlito Carvalhosa, Fabiana de Barros & Michel Favre, José Damasceno, Laura Vinci, Marcius Galan, Marcos Chaves, Paola Junqueira, Paulo Vivacqua and Waltercio Caldas – and 8 artists from other nationalities – Anthony McCall (England), Ben Vautier (Italy), Bruce Nauman (USA), Ceal Floyer (Pakistan) François Morellet (France) James Turrell (USA), Keith Sonnier (USA) and Ryan Gander (England).
The exhibition shows the artists in question dealing with these two ways of relating to the work of art – the question of “matter” or “nonmatter”, which may or may not be a concrete materiality. Adon Peres comments on how the viewer will be faced with these two ways of artistic perception, “in the first case, it establishes a subject-object specific relationship in which prevails certain distance, different from the second, especially in installations where the viewer is literally immersed in the atmosphere of the work.”

Cirandar Todos, curated by Ligia Canongia, is the title of one of the works and the exhibition José Damasceno is presenting at Casa França-Brasil. The installation makes use of just one element: 30-centimeter-high wooden dolls. A group of around 150 male and female figures are joined together to form a circle. The sculpture bears an immediate correspondence, amongst other things, to an old folk dance-cum-children’s game called the ciranda.
In the adjoining rooms there are three different works. Monitor-Crayon, made up of 90,000 crayons placed in juxtaposition merely by being fitted into the frame, forms a multi-colored abstract image. The same room is also occupied by 1/4, a sculpture made of two solid ellipses of Corten steel, one of which is on the wall and the other on the floor, shaping an imaginary circle and merely suggesting that in the visitors imagination they would continue their route through the wall and the floor. In the other room is BRmm, a collage of hundreds of newspaper cuttings arranged in the shape of the map of Brazil, and neon lights tracing the shape of the room.
The proposal is designed to enunciate the possibility of empowering the aesthetic experience through playful and unexpected perspectives; space, thought, and imagination directed linked by using extremely simple, basic elements.

Our house, my life is an installation by Nelson Leirner to mark the tenth anniversary of the Breathing Project at Fundação Eva Klabin.
The artist decided to create a show apartment from the government’s My House, My Life housing program in one of the rooms from the Eva Klabin house museum, transforming this luxury haven into a fully furnished budget apartment with living and sleeping areas, bathroom and kitchen for a family of four.
Drawing on humor and irony in their broadest sense, Leirner probes the situations he comes across with a critical irony that questions the prevailing standards in politics, art, and social and economic compacts. This was his strategy in creating a new home inside the Eva Klabin house museum, but this time on a shoestring budget.

The concept and design of architectural and landscape projects of Oscar Niemeyer and Burle Marx to the most important park in the city of São Paulo in drawings, photographs, models, panels, plans and maps. The show establishes a relationship between the park and the new period of modern architecture that begins to establish in Brazil in the year of its inauguration in 1954. The curators Rodrigo Queiroz and Anne Barone selected four panels present in the first exhibition held at Oca, event who was part of the celebrations of the fourth centenary of the Foundation of São Paulo.
“Like a kind of modern clearing in the suburbs, the buildings in Ibirapuera Park came at the same time as São Paulo was experiencing a fast period of growth. (…)The creation of Ibirapuera Park ushered in a new level of awareness about our modern condition that reached beyond representation detached from the real world, conferring a unique aesthetic meaning to all domains of life, from the visual arts to urbanism.” Rodrigo Queiroz and Ana Barone curators

The Rio Design Championship was held at Centro Carioca de Design / Studio-X. The 25 contestants were split into three groups coordinated by Chris Calvet (Brazil) + Uta Eisenreich (Germany), Nina Paim (Brazil) + Julia Born (Switzerland), and João Doria (Brazil). The participants chose their groups according to their perceived affinities, and designed projects during the first two days. These designs were then discussed in a public round table session with critic, curator, and essayist Frederico Coelho and artist Eduardo Coimbra. The designs of games (sets of rules and public demonstrations), videos, installations, projections on screens, projections in the space/environment (mapping), and publications were exhibited to the public on the last day of the event, Saturday, August 30.

Travessias 3 – Contemporary Art at Maré opened to the public on August 23 at Galpão Bela Maré, in Nova Holanda, north zone of Rio de Janeiro, and will remain there until November 16, free of charge.
This, the third Travessias exhibition, celebrates a new encounter between contemporary visual arts and a community space. The interaction between established artists from different parts of Brazil and young photographers from the Maré community is organized by artist Daniel Senise. It combines a multiplicity of artistic languages: film, painting, installation, photography, and objects. Travessias 3 contains new and past works by Barrão, Dora Longo Bahia, Sandra Kogut, Mauro Restiffe, Jonathas de Andrade, Cao Guimarães, and Luiz Zerbini, together with photographs from Imagens do Povo, a program run by Observatório de Favelas.
This is an exhibition, a space for interchange, an opportunity for the democratic circulation of information and new ways of conceiving of the Complexo da Maré community. Without any social or territorial distinctions, Travessias makes the favela itself an aesthetic point of reference with the aim of fostering creation and fruition.
Travessias 3 is sponsored by Petrobras through the state culture law (ICMS tax benefit), and the Rio de Janeiro Municipal Department of Culture through its Program to Support Culture in Rio. It is produced by Automatica Produção Contemporânea and Observatório de Favelas, and counts on the partnership of Redes de Desenvolvimento da Maré and RUA Arquitetos.

Waltercio Caldas, the guest artist for the fifth edition of the Vão project, has brought his installation, Mar de Exemplo, to Sesc Belenzinho, where 30 stainless steel structures are carefully arranged in an bid to subvert the space of the atrium and its main features, like its light, transparency, and the circulation of visitors.
By setting up predominantly horizontal lines with four words that are repeated to the point of being absorbed and dissolved into the environment, Mar de Exemplo invites the viewers to be part of the work, relating in their own way to the planes created through their own interpretations and significations.

Cabeça – Milton Machado (Head – Milton Machado) is the first retrospective of the artist’s work to mark his 45th year of activity. It includes over a hundred works – drawings, paintings, photographs, videos, and sculptures – produced between 1969 and 2014, many for the first time. Milton Machado belongs to a group of artists who started working in the 1970s, whose output is strongly marked by conceptual investigations and experimentation, with works characteristically organized into series of elements, tending to lend the exhibition spaces an installation-like feeling. This exhibition displays some important works, like Módulo de Destruição (Module of Destruction), a sculpture produced here in a new version (1990-2010-2014) for the rotunda, and a series of drawings, Conspiração Arquitetura (Architecture Conspiracy),addressing topics related to architecture and urbanism, exhibited for the first time in 1981 at Galeria Sergio Milliet, Funarte, Rio de Janeiro. Most of the works from the series are part of the Gilberto Chateaubriand/MAM-RJ collection, and are rarely seen by the public.
