Galeria Estação Showcases Brazilian Art with 'Reversos e Transversos' and Highlights José Antônio da Silva
Galeria Estação in Brazil presents 'Reversos e Transversos,' an exhibition aiming to dissolve the dichotomy between popular and erudite art. The show features works by José Antônio da Silva, described as modern rather than primitive, and explores themes of exile in pieces by Pedro Figari and Júlio Martins da Silva. Another artist, shaped by migrations, affective memories, and self-knowledge, is highlighted. Vilma Eid, a significant patron of Brazilian popular art, is noted. Concurrently, Santídio Pereira exhibits at the Fundação Iberê Camargo in Porto Alegre. The 2021 art market is reported to be far from crisis, with a collaborative project uniting galleries and cultural spaces on a virtual platform.
