Videobrasil Launches Online Exhibition Platform with Focus on Global South
Videobrasil has launched a new virtual exhibition space called Videobrasil Online, marking a significant digital expansion for the organization. The platform features multiple exhibitions with a focus on perspectives from the Global South. Artist Ayrson Heráclito is presenting works in one of the online shows. Another exhibition explores confinement and imprisonment through contemporary art. The platform also includes a presentation of South Korean art addressing the Anthropocene era. Artists Calderón y Piñeros contribute work examining themes of progress and ruin. Giselle Beiguelman and Ilê Sartuzi present a collaborative project that moves beyond the history of a specific mansion. The extinction of borders is identified as a defining characteristic of contemporary change. This initiative represents Videobrasil's four-decade commitment to lens-based media from Southern perspectives.
