Xilo: Corpo e Paisagem Showcases 33 Artists Reinventing Woodcut Tradition at Sesc Guarulhos

At Sesc Guarulhos, the exhibition 'Xilo: Corpo e Paisagem,' curated by Claudio Mubarac, showcases the work of 33 artists who delve into the modern reinterpretation of woodcut printmaking. This exhibition, which highlights a tradition dating back to the 1950s and 60s, links the early innovators with printmakers from the 1990s, focusing on collaborative workshops. Featured pieces include Fabricio Lopez's landscape panel, Eduardo Ver's mural 'A Banda Amarela chega à Etiópia Sagrada,' and Ana Calzavara's yellowed landscapes. Fernando Vilela integrates photography with sculpture, while Luisa Almeida depicts armed female fighters as totems. The unframed prints emphasize the dynamic and popular essence of xilogravura, reflecting its historical significance as a revolutionary medium. The exhibition continues until September.
