As a way of recognizing the evolution of artistic research and practice within the contemporary discourse, for this edition of Art Basel Miami Beach, Luciana Brito Galeria is presenting a selection of works that reflects the gallery’s commitment to the artistic debate in a curatorship that considers an intercrossing between different artistic languages and approaches, proper to contemporaneity. To this end, it is presenting a group of works by Waldemar Cordeiro (1925, Italy – 1973, Brazil), in a meaningful dialogue with works by Héctor Zamora (1974, Mexico), Iván Navarro (1972, Chile) and Regina Silveira (1932, Brazil). Especially for this edition of the fair, Luciana Brito Galeria is introducing a brand-new partnership with Galeria Estação, reinforcing both galleries’ concern for valorizing art in Brazil as an inclusive and social solution.Online Viewing Room

The artistic practice involves all the steps inherent to the creative process, and, although each artist is unique, their processes all reveal the same common aim: to communicate. Understanding the importance of processes in artistic manifestations, Luciana Brito Galeria is presenting a group of works that reflects the diversity and individuality of each artist in his or her exercise of experimentation, with works by Augusto de Campos, Analivia Cordeiro, Bosco Sodi, Caio Reisewitz, Eder Santos, Fernando Zarif, Geraldo de Barros, Gertrudes Altschul, Iván Navarro, Jorge Pardo, Pablo Lobato, Rafael Carneiro, Regina Silveira e Rochelle Costi.Regina Silveira's Dilatáveis emerged with her academic research in the 1980s, through engraving and the appropriation of images, based on the study of the representation of shadows projected in exaggerated and distorted ways.Bosco Sodi's Sun Paintings series was produced during the time of social isolation at Casa Wabi, on the Mexican coast, where the artist employed the rough surface of burlap sacks to paint “sun” circles in appreciation of the local sunset. Rafael Carneiro's paintings, on the other hand, present an organic and free method, based on images from his own collection, which are decontextualized, articulated and resignified. Fernando Zarif, in this series of small portraits, revealed his frenetic form of production, where creating was associated to a symbiotic experience with the processes.In his last artistic foray, Geraldo de Barros created the Sobras series through cuts, collages and interpositions made on the basis of his own personal photograph collection, creating and recreating narratives of a lifetime. Likewise, Rochelle Costi uses images and imagery from her surroundings to delineate fields of interest in her photographs, while Caio Reisewitz resignifies the image through a technique of diluting shapes, colors and textures.

For this edition of ArtRio 2021, Luciana Brito Galeria presents a set of works that represent what is most relevant in recent research by the represented artists: Caio Reisewitz (1967, São Paulo), Hector Zamora (1974, Mexico), Iván Navarro (1972, Chile), Rafael Carneiro (1985, São Paulo), Regina Silveira (1939, Porto Alegre), Rochelle Costi (1961, Caxias do Sul) and Tiago Tebet (1986, São Paulo).
Discussions around the exploration and devastation of Brazilian forests have guided part of Caio Reisewitz's recent research. Works with overlapping images involving the Brazilian native forest reinforce the importance of preserving nature. Rochelle Costi, on the other hand, presents a production that explores common places in the memory of the collective unconscious through photography.
Hector Zamora is known for his research involving architecture, where he reinvents and reframes conventional spaces, problematizing historical, social and political issues related to work and the consumer society. His installations made from cobogó bricks, a common element in Latin American architecture, gained an extraordinary dimension in the site specific carried out recently at the Roof Garden at MET-NY.
Artists Rafael Carneiro and Tiago Tebet have painting as the main support for their research. While Carneiro, through technical rigor, develops a methodology for the transcription of images, where each one of them has its meaning diluted and reconfigured, Tebet prioritizes mechanical and artisanal methods to achieve spontaneous effects of colors and textures.
Iván Navarro's colorful and luminous installations engage in a dialogue with minimalism, provoking the senses while interactively attracting the viewer. In general, its production is imbued with political connotations, communicated through various strategies, such as titles, anagrams, appropriation and deconstruction of symbols, etc. - Artsy Latin American Galleries Now

"Campo" is the first video created by the artist, together with the initial developments of videoart in collaboration with MAC USP between the years of 1976 and 1978.Héctor Zamora, "Photokinetic", 2020A video produced during the exhibition Lattice Detour, by Héctor Zamora, in the Roof Garden, at the Metropolitan Museum in New York, USA. It involves a game concerning the effect of movements, a playful dance, of the bodies of the participants and their effects brought about by the empty spaces between the bricks, creating fragmented shadows. The movement is occasioned by the sunlight at sunset; an unexpected effect that happens at the end of the day.
