Oi Futuro Flamengo, Rio de Janeiro, RJ

Curated by Paulo Herkenhoff, Atlas América [Atlas of the Americas] was held in Oi Futuro, Rio de Janeiro, between June and August 2007. The exhibition brought together 15 artists from different nationalities: Alan Michelson (EUA), Anna Maria Maiolino (Brasil), Damián Ortega (México), Dirceu Maués (Brasil), Donna Conlon (EUA), Fatimah Tuggar (Nigéria), Jennifer Allora e Guillermo Calzadilla (EUA e Cuba), Javier Tellez (Venezuela), José Alejandro Restrepo (Colômbia), Katie van Scherpenberg (Brasil), Kimsooja (Corea), Naiah Mendonça (Brasil), Miguel Angel Rios (Argentina) e Simone Michelin (Brasil). This collective perspective between countries and generations resulted in a selection of work that presented a mix of artists and media that offered the public a sort of critical and aesthetic mapping of contemporary production in the Americas.
