35th Bienal de São Paulo | choreographies of the impossible

2024年1月27日
Now in its seventh edition, the traveling exhibitions program of the Bienal de São Paulo will take selections from the main show to cities in Brazil and abroad in the year following its staging. In 2024, the first stop will be the Museu de Arte Moderna do Rio de Janeiro (MAM Rio), where curators Diane Lima, Grada Kilomba, Hélio Menezes, and Manuel Borja-Villel have designed a special segment of the show adapted to the characteristics and context of the city, which is scheduled to open on January 27th.
 
Of the 121 artists at the Bienal Pavilion in São Paulo, 19 will be in Rio de Janeiro. According to the curators, the selection offers a panorama of what was seen in São Paulo: “It’s a cross-section of the exhibition that brings together important aspects of the 35th Bienal de São Paulo. It’s a challenging but equally interesting exercise to make a selection from such a complex and monumental exhibition, even more so in the context of Rio de Janeiro, a city that has so many intersections with contemporary urgencies and beauties that the choreographies of the impossible bring with them.”
 
The following artists are taking part in the exhibition: Citra Sasmita, Edgar Calel, Emanoel Araujo, Katherine Dunham, Leilah Weinraub, Luiz de Abreu, M’barek Bouhchichi, Malinche, Marilyn Boror Bor, Maya Deren, Min Tanaka and François Pain, Quilombo Cafundó, Rosana Paulino, Santu Mofokeng, Simone Leigh & Madeleine Hunt-Ehrlich, The Living and Dead Ensemble, Torkwase Dyson, Xica Manicongo, and Zumví Arquivo Afro Fotográfico.
