Third Etnomídia Show Transforms Gallery into Indigenous Cultural Hub

The third edition of the Mostra Etnomídia Indígena opens at Carmo Johnson gallery in São Paulo on May 30, 2026, reimagining the white cube as a space of coexistence and cultural overlap. Curated by Gustavo Caboco and conceived by Naine Terena, the show adopts a fair-festival format with the subtitle Festival de Impressos Indígenas, expanding the concept of printing beyond paper to include textiles, literature, and installation. The expography, developed with Liberio Uiagumeareu of the Boe Bororo people, reorganizes the gallery around the Boe village logic using the concepts of 'Pa Muga' (indigenous-non-indigenous coexistence space) and 'Ce Muga' (indigenous space). Featured works include Isaías Miliano's 'Pajé Cara Branca' referencing his grandfather's white clay face, and pieces by the REMBYAPÓ Collective (Ara Guarani, Sônia Guarani, Claudiomiro Guarani). Participating artists represent Guarani Ñandeva, Boe, Patamona, Manoki, Myky, Wapixana, and Terena peoples. The show runs until June 20 at Carmo Johnson, then travels to Salvador (July 9–August 2) and Brasília (August 20–September 6). Caboco notes a shift from spectacle to depth in indigenous art's institutional presence.
