Artebrasileiros Issue 51 Examines Brazilian Art Historiography and Decolonial Debates

Artebrasileiros issue 51, edited by Ana Maria Gonçalves, presents a historiographic record addressing critical themes in contemporary Brazilian art. The publication explores the exhaustion of a nation and the portrayal of the invisible. It confronts colonial fake news and questions the fate of monuments glorifying bandeirantes. A section on Chile highlights art's liberatory cries. The issue interrogates museum norms post-pandemic, asking what institutions are desired after the crisis. Politics, culture, and the museum landscape in Brazil are analyzed. Deconstructing white hegemony in Brazilian arts is framed as an effective action for change. The content spans multiple essays and perspectives without specifying exact dates or venues beyond the publication itself.
