CCBB Launches Online Guided Tours for Exhibitions Across Four Brazilian Cities

The Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil (CCBB) has launched online guided tours for its current exhibitions, available starting June 25. This initiative expands the #CCBBEducativoEmCasa program, which provides family-oriented content from artists and educators. The virtual tours offer access to exhibitions that remain physically open but with suspended public entry due to social distancing measures. In Belo Horizonte, the exhibition 'Vaivém' presents over 300 works exploring the hammock in Brazilian culture and art, featuring pieces from the 16th century to the present by indigenous and non-indigenous artists. CCBB Brasília hosts 'Linhas da Vida,' a show of approximately 70 works by Japanese multidisciplinary artist Chiharu Shiota, known for large-scale, site-specific installations of entangled threads. At CCBB Rio de Janeiro, 'Ivan Serpa – A Expressão do Concreto' offers a guided tour through the artist's diverse experiments in painting, collage, drawing, objects, and printmaking. CCBB São Paulo presents 'Egito Antigo – do Cotidiano à Eternidade,' featuring 140 artifacts from the Museo Egizio in Turin, the world's second-largest Egyptian art collection, including sculptures, paintings, everyday objects, ostracons, sarcophagi, and mummies. The program's educational actions were developed by JA.CA Centro de Arte e Tecnologia from 2018 to April 2020.
