Travessias 2 – Arte Contemporânea na Maré
04/13/2013 — 06/23/2013
Galpão Bela Maré, Rio de Janeiro, RJ
Travessias is a project aiming to incorporate the favela of Maré and its inhabitants into the map of visual arts, highlighting the role of Brazilian contemporary art and artists in the process of urban and esthetics integration.
Art can be a powerful connection among parts, widening possibilities and encouraging conversations. It also stimulates encounters between residents, critics, curators, gallerists, artists, students and others who are interested in transforming the way people look and in building a more democratic territory.
Raul Mourão and Felipe Scovino are the curators of the exhibition and it shows 10 brazilian contemporary artists: Arjan Martins, Cadu, Carlos Vergara, Daniel Senise, Ernesto Neto, Lucas Bambozzi, Luiza Baldan, Marcelo Silveira, Ratão Diniz e Vik Muniz.
