BIENALSUR and 34th São Paulo Biennial explore migration, identity, and political themes

BIENALSUR, the international biennial of contemporary art, emphasizes environmental issues, migration, and identities in its current edition. Concurrently, the 34th Bienal de São Paulo has launched its main exhibition with a pronounced political focus. The Museu Paulista is highlighted as a key site for historical reconsideration, while the Museu da Língua Portuguesa has reopened in a redesigned form in São Paulo's city center. Artist Carlito Carvalhosa is noted for his exploration of transitory objects. A project titled 'Arquivos Maria Hirszman' serves as a historical laboratory, rethinking modernism through the lens of the 1922 Semana de Arte Moderna. These events collectively address themes of connection, dialogue, and the ephemeral nature of materials and ideas within Brazilian and international art contexts.
