Latest Events in Sao Paulo(June Updated)

MASP – Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand presents, starting on April 11, the exhibition Women Affected by Dams: Embroidering Rights, which brings together 34 arpilleras produced by the National Collective of Women of the Movement of People Affected by Dams (MAB). The pieces were collectively made by women from all over Brazil, in embroidery circles organized by the collective, as an expression of their experiences and struggles in the face of the social and environmental impacts caused by the construction, operation and rupture of dams.

Curated by Adriano Pedrosa, artistic director, MASP, and Fernando Oliva, curator, MASP, the selection covers practically the entire career of the French artist. Among the paintings is the famous work Pink and blue – The Cahen d’Anvers girls (1881), which portrays Elisabeth and Alice, daughters of banker Louis Cahen d’Anvers (1837–1922), a family belonging to the 19th-century Jewish community. Alice lived until the age of 89 and died in Nice in 1965. Elisabeth, on the other hand, had a tragic fate. During the exhibition of MASP works held at the Fondation Pierre Gianadda in Switzerland in 1987, her nephew Jean de Monbrison wrote to the museum reporting that Elisabeth had been sent to Auschwitz during World War II and died on the way to the concentration camp at the age of 69.

The curatorship of Amanda Carneiro, curator, MASP, and Leandro Muniz, assistant curator, MASP, selected pieces made of wood, mainly those related to the body or its representation. The collection includes statuettes of Exu and Xangô, everyday objects, dolls, drums, furniture and masks used in festivities, initiation rituals, celebrations or funerals. Although other presentations of this collection have already been held, this is the first exhibition that seeks to establish a critical and purposeful reading of the museum's African art collection.

Works from different periods in the history of recent Brazilian art are brought together in six sections of the exhibition: “Nature: the end of representation”, “Urban environment: the habitat of modernity”, “Bodies: the politics of relationships”, “Forms of building and breaking”, “Fragments, gestures and abstractions”, and “Media: updated traditions”. These thematic sections bring together works from different times and contexts to demonstrate that the recurrence of issues of modernity in contemporary times is a fact of the time lived and often in overlapping periods. Within the sections, works produced by active artists dialogue with works linked to the modernist avant-garde. Whether through visual qualities or technical and conceptual procedures, these works extend to the present day issues initially revealed by industrial modernity, which continue to be unfolded by development efforts and technological advances. The perception of continuity in these ways of thinking and revealing reality is precisely the critical tool that society needs to deal with the dystopian challenges that present themselves to the entire world. The current collection at MAM thus poses questions that touch on cultural, social and historical issues: What is the relationship between the ideas of “modern” and “contemporary”? How do they differ and what brings them together? And how does this affect our ways of producing culture and narrating history? Is it simply a distinction between periods or styles? There are certainly historical and theoretical differences that deserve broad discussion, but is it possible to precisely draw the visual and temporal boundary between modern art and contemporary art? How does this relate to the perception of historical time and lived time? The exhibition addresses these questions, not to answer them definitively, but rather to contribute to other approaches, offering the public the autonomy to be surprised by the reflections awakened by art, regardless of the time period.

In a timeline format, the exhibition brings together 74 works from MASP’s collection and rarely exhibited documentation from the museum’s Research Center, including photographs, documents, posters, books, catalogs, newspapers, and magazines. This selection presents the institution’s history in a didactic and panoramic manner, addressing topics such as the creation of the museum, the formation of its collection, its first headquarters on 7 de Abril, the move to Avenida Paulista, as well as exhibitions and events that made history in recent decades. The exhibition is curated by Adriano Pedrosa, artistic director, MASP; Regina Teixeira de Barros, coordinating and collection curator, MASP; Guilherme Giufrida, assistant curator, MASP; and Laura Cosendey, assistant curator, MASP.

Curated by Adriano Pedrosa, artistic director, MASP, Regina Teixeira de Barros, coordinating curator, MASP, and Matheus de Andrade, curatorial assistant, MASP, the exhibition proposes a look at both traditional geometry, primarily guided by mathematical principles, and more experimental approaches. These concepts unfold in works by national and international artists who explore various media and techniques, such as paintings, sculptures, photographs and fabrics. The dialogue between the different trends reflects the incorporation of geometric art into the museum's collection.

The projections are displayed on screens with different supports. Some are fixed to the wall, while others are supported by concrete cubes, a reference to the crystal easels designed by the architect for MASP. The structure symbolizes the idea of ​​an open and transparent museum, which allows the public to have a closer encounter with the works of art. The original soundtrack, composed by Maria de Alvear, reinforces the immersive and sensorial nature of the installation.

MASP – Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand presents, starting on April 11, the exhibition Hulda Guzmán: Frutas Milagrosas, the first solo exhibition by Dominican artist Hulda Guzmán (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, 1984) in a museum. In her paintings, the artist subverts the tradition of landscape painting by denying its exotic and idyllic representation, choosing instead to treat nature as a protagonist territory in which all elements are interdependent. Relationships of affection and the surroundings of the place where she lives are recurring themes in her paintings, in which tropical and fantastical settings are inhabited by a diverse cast of characters — real or imaginary. Her works maintain a biographical character, imbued with humor and a dreamlike or theatrical appeal.

The 38th edition of Panorama da Arte Brasileira: Mil Graus arrives at Sesc Campinas as a live ember, bringing together works that illuminate and elaborate sensibilities, identities and experiences from different contexts in the country. Constituted as a critical reflection on the national reality, the exhibition brings together artists whose practices traverse urgent issues: from the ecological to the technological, from the political to the spiritual. As matter in transmutation, these works soften the limits of language and activate collective memories against hegemonic ones, proposing not only reflection, but action. Based on an understanding of the exhibition space as an environment where contrasts and connections merge, the selected works operate as fissure devices — they expose cracks in crystallized logics and suggest new ways of inhabiting the world. With this itinerant exhibition, inaugurated in 2024 at MAC USP and held by the Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo, Sesc seeks to expand access to the symbolic layers that make up the exhibition. In addition to the visit, the program includes educational mediations that deepen the instances of sharing between artists and audiences. Like the transitory states of matter that heat brings about, the institution is interested in establishing itself as an educational space in which subjective processes between what has been and what is to come take place, revealing themselves in the creative experiences specific to the artistic field.

The MAM Sculpture Garden is a landmark in Ibirapuera Park, an iconic place for leisure and socializing in the city of São Paulo. As a transition zone between the MAM and its urban habitat, the garden transcends the boundaries of conventional museum space and, without obstructing the passage of those who walk there, provides the public with a shared space to enjoy through art. Officially inaugurated in 1993, the history of the MAM Garden follows the development of the museum itself and its presence in Ibirapuera Park. Documents indicate that, shortly after the inauguration of the MAM headquarters in the park in 1969, the museum soon became concerned with the care of the works sparsely present there and committed to creating a “Sculpture Garden” with works from its own collection. With the renovation in the 1980s, which established the museum’s characteristic glass façade and transformed its relationship with the park and the city, the use of the Garden was intensified. The curatorial organization was consolidated in 1993, when the works were repositioned, and the space between the Oca, the Bienal pavilion and the MAM received landscaping designed by the office of Roberto Burle Marx, in partnership with Haruyoshi Ono. Roberto Burle Marx (1909-1994) was one of the great names of Brazilian modernism, with a body of work that, through various media, contributed to the fields of landscaping, urbanism and ecology. His contributions were essential to consolidating gardens as forms of artistic expression capable of redefining spaces of circulation and, especially, of public importance. Between 1992 and 1993, Burle Marx carried out a landscaping project for Ibirapuera Park that included, in particular, the external area of ​​the MAM and the works from his collection exhibited there. The Sculpture Garden had already been part of two previous versions of Burle Marx's project for the Park, in 1953 and 1974, but it was only completed in the 1990s. Conceived by the author as “a space to encourage the practice of artistic coexistence in the community”, the landscaping in the MAM Garden introduced new plant species – grouped in such a way as to highlight their common features and, at the same time, explore their different textures and colors – and established paths made of gravel, pebbles and grass, which lead visitors to the works. At this time when MAM is out of its headquarters due to the renovation of the Ibirapuera Park marquee, we propose a kind of reenactment of the MAM Garden at Sesc Vila Mariana, but without any intention of literally reconstituting its plant elements or presenting the same works that make up the original space. Influenced by Burle Marx's extensive output, especially the drawings and paintings produced during the design process of many of his landscape projects, we created an exhibition design whose architecture is based on the spatiality, colors, shapes and lines of two important projects: the MAM Sculpture Garden in Ibirapuera Park and the garden of the Gustavo Capanema Palace, the former headquarters of the Ministry of Education and Health, in Rio de Janeiro. The former was the source of the “islands” that group the works in the exhibition and the topographical variations of the MAM Garden's terrain, reflected in the different heights that make up these “islands”. The colors and designs of the bases were inspired by a painting by Burle Marx, produced as a study for the Gustavo Capanema Palace garden in 1938, which projects an area delimited by sinuous contours and represents different plant species with a variety of colorful, equally sinuous patches. The exhibition at Sesc Vila Mariana includes works that are part of, or have been part of, the set on display at the Ibirapuera Park Sculpture Garden and works from the MAM collection that relate, in different ways, to nature, the body, the city, materiality, and to languages ​​that express some of the inescapable tensions in society. Similar to the activations routinely carried out by MAM Educativo in the Sculpture Garden, the museum's educators will carry out actions during the exhibition period that will highlight various ways of relating to Burle Marx's landscaping that we reinterpret here.
