Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil, Rio de Janeiro, RJ
The exhibition, organized by the Tomie Ohtake Institute with local production by Automatica, features 160 photographs by award-winning Japanese photographer Hiromi Nagakura. The photographer made five trips with environmental leader Ailton Krenak through the Amazon between 1993 and 1998, where you can see records of the Yanomami, Xavante, Krikati, Gavião, Yawanawá, Huni Kuin and Ashaninka indigenous nations. Curated by Krenak and assistant curated by Angela Pappiani, Eliza Otsuka and Priscyla Gomes, the show came from São Paulo and was expanded in Rio de Janeiro, with photos that were not present in the São Paulo edition of the exhibition and objects from the peoples visited.
