The Instituto Tomie Ohtake in São Paulo, Brazil, is presenting several significant exhibitions. Anna Maria Maiolino's show "psssiiiuuu..." features approximately 300 works by the artist. Another exhibition, "Tunga: Conjunções Magnéticas," celebrates the enduring legacy of Tunga's artistic production. Luiz Braga's work is explored through the themes of idea, reflection, and image. Maxwell Alexandre's exhibition "Pardo é Papel" examines the epic grandeur of a people in formation. A digital butoh dance performance brings Tomie Ohtake's work to the stage. The 7th edition of the Prêmio EDP nas Artes has announced its selected artists. The Japan House's president noted the institution exists because the Japanese government recognizes the value of cultural exchange. The article also references the genesis of the Museo del Barro and discusses places of memory and resistance.
