exhibition · 2026-04-23

William Forsythe's exhibition 'Objetos Coreográficos' has opened at Sesc Pompeia in São Paulo, running until July 28. This marks the multi-artist's first solo show in Brazil, following presentations in global cities like London, Paris, and Frankfurt. The exhibition features interactive works that require audience activation to exist, as described by co-curator Veronica Stigger. Forsythe began creating these participatory objects in the 1990s, moving beyond dance to produce pieces for kinetic engagement. The show also includes video-art works. Stigger shares curatorial duties with Forsythe Produções. The exhibition is designed for public interaction, emphasizing a dialogue between object and spectator that invites bodily movement.
