Daniel Blaufuks - Today is always yesterday
05/06/2011 — 08/21/2011
Museu de Arte Moderna, Rio de Janeiro, RJ
The exhibition Today is always yesterday of the Portuguese artist Daniel Blaufuks portrayed the issue of memory of public and private spaces. Photographs taken in his visit to the city, mixing the photographer’s demanding perspective and the available traveler’s perspective, were projected. Given that it’s a foreign point of view, although the artist had been to Rio a couple of times, he tried to approach the urban space subjectively, in a way that this particular view of the “marvelous city” provoked feelings and perspectives not yet explored.
The projected photogram formed a type of film for the artist insisted on creating a link between the photos. The exhibition occupied two rooms of the museum. This one installation is also a reflex of other works by the artist, where memory and reality are central themes.
