Sérgio Mamberti's Collage Exhibition Opens at Galeria São Paulo Flutuante

Actor Sérgio Mamberti presents 30 collages in his solo exhibition 'Comandante Mamberti' at Galeria São Paulo Flutuante from August 5 to 31. The show, which marks the gallery's return after a 15-year hiatus, also includes photographs spanning his 80-year life and 63-year career. Mamberti began creating collages in theater dressing rooms during the 1970s and 80s, encouraged by scenographer Flávio Império. His first exhibition participation was in 1977's 'Os alegres pintores do Bexiga' at Teatro Igrejinha. The actor, who served in various roles at Brazil's Ministry of Culture during the Lula and Dilma Rousseff administrations, sees collage as parallel to his theatrical character construction through image juxtaposition. Gallery owner Regina Boni invited him to exhibit this lesser-known facet of his work. Concurrently, Mamberti performs in the play 'Visitando o Sr. Green' at Teatro Renaissance with actor Ricardo Gelli.
