In the last years, photography has assimilated the challenges and adjusted itself until it achieves its definitive place within the visual arts in Brazil, having some figures playing a fundamental role, such as Geraldo de Barros, Thomaz Farkas and Gaspar Gasparian. Since its inauguration in 1997, Luciana Brito Galeria has believed in such potential, so much so that one of its first projects was a solo exhibition by Rochelle Costi, In 1998. The show featured a series of photographs that not only earned her an invitation to participate in the XXIV São Paulo Biennial, but also the cover of the event's publication at the time. Currently, the gallery brings together a representative group of artists focused on photography, going from the history of Modernism to Contemporary in Brazil: Geraldo de Barros (1923, Xavantes - 1998, São Paulo), Thomaz Farkas (1924, Budapest - 2011, São Paulo), Gaspar Gasparian (1889 - 1966, São Paulo), Caio Reisewitz (1967, São Paulo) and Rochelle Costi (1961, Caxias do Sul).
