Belo Jardim Residence – Carlos Mélo
2018
Carlos Mélo
The publication contains texts and images recording the Cycle of Art Exhibitions and Belojardim Residency program beginning in 2017 in this municipality situated 180 km from Recife. The second guest artist, for the 2018 edition, is Carlos Mélo (Pernambuco, 1969). Curated by Cristiana Tejo and Kiki Mazzucchelli and produced by Automatica, the project in the Agreste region of Pernambuco aims to develop the proposal of encouraging discussion of the present-day sociocultural meaning of the Northeast and the artistic heritage of this region. This is achieved by art projects specially commissioned for the region. During his stay in the city, Carlos Mélo staged an exhibition at SESC Ler Belo Jardim and produced a film entitled Barro Oco about the Barro Branco community and its power of resistance.
