ARTE!Brasileiros Issue 44 Explores Memory, Geopolitics, and Brazilian Art

ARTE!Brasileiros has published its 44th edition, focusing on memory and geopolitics within Brazilian art. The issue examines the enduring legacy of AI-5, the notorious 1968 institutional act from Brazil's military dictatorship, suggesting its effects persist today. It features a narrative about a young person who escaped that era's oppressive regime. A discussion on Afro-Atlantic histories is presented, noted for its necessity but conventional format. The publication includes a comprehensive feature on artist Flavio-Shiró. It also covers the restoration of memory and expanded artistic directions. Portraits by photographer Bob Wolfenson are highlighted as precious works. The content collectively addresses historical trauma, identity, and artistic expression in Brazil's socio-political context.
