São Paulo's Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil (CCBB) will host the "Atlântico Sertão" exhibition featuring works by over 70 artists starting April 15. Curated by Ariana Nuala and others, it portrays the sertão as a symbolic territory intersecting historical experiences of Brazil. An inédita installation by artist Biarritzzz will feature on the ground floor.
The "Atlântico Sertão" exhibition will occupy all floors of São Paulo's CCBB from April 15 to August 3. Curators Ariana Nuala, Marcelo Campos, Amanda Rezende, Jean Carlos Azuos, Rita Vênus, and Thayná Trindade selected works revealing diverse narratives about the sertão.
Ariana Nuala describes the sertão as "a symbolic territory where different historical experiences intersect and where art can reveal different narratives about the country." Marcelo Campos notes: "In the exhibition we present the sertão of technology, of leather, the one that reflects on ecology and environmental preservation."
Artists include Antonio Obá, Ayrson Heráclito, Aline Motta, Dalton Paula, Denilson Baniwa, Jaime Lauriano, Lidia Lisboa, Maria Macedo, Nádia Taquary, Rafael Bqueer, Rosana Paulino, Tunga, and Ziel Karapotó. Biarritzzz created an inédita installation designed specifically for the CCBB's ground floor.
The show features inédita works made for the project, emphasizing themes like technology, ecology, and environmental preservation in the Brazilian sertão context.
