Casa Zalszupin hosts 'Utopias Modernistas Brasileiras' curated by Iatã Cannabrava
Until March 18, Casa Zalszupin showcases 'Sarau Zalszupin – Utopias Modernistas Brasileiras,' under the curation of Iatã Cannabrava. This exhibition delves into the relationships between modernist furniture, photography, and concrete poetry. Cannabrava, a photographer, previously curated his inaugural non-photography exhibition at Almeida & Dale gallery, which collaborates with ETEL. He co-authored the book 'Moderna para sempre: Fotografia modernista brasileira na Coleção Itaú Cultural' with journalist Tato Coutinho. The display emphasizes Brazilian modernist utopia through creative pieces, featuring works by José Yalenti and Carlos Líger, Jean Manzon’s photographs, and Lina Bo Bardi's furniture. Additionally, it includes concrete poems by Haroldo de Campos and visual poetry from Wlademir Dias-Pino. The exhibition is accessible for free by appointment, operating Monday to Friday from 10 am to 5 pm and Saturdays from 10 am to 2 pm.
