The exhibition '
Intersections: Blacks, indigenous people and peripheral people in the city of São Paulo ' could not have had a better opening date: São Paulo's anniversary, which took place last Wednesday, January 25th. Housed in the
City Museum and with
free entry , the exhibition brings together more than
300 objects including photographs, paintings, videos, musical instruments and costumes from different artistic languages produced by more than 100 São Paulo artists over the last 40 years.
The exhibition presents relevant
artistic and cultural movements that contributed not only to fostering black, indigenous and peripheral narratives in the city over the last 40 years, but were also fundamental to the construction of what we understand as
São Paulo culture today. “This exhibition starts of decolonial thinking, if today we have a critical process in relation to intellectual and cultural production, it is due to these movements that helped to build this field of art-activism that we have today”, highlights Adriana Barbosa, businesswoman who is part of the collective of curators of the exhibition, which also includes journalist Nabor Jr. and historian Eleilson Leite, in collaboration with indigenous leader Jera Guarani.
Divided into three axes that converge with each other – "Territories", "Subjects" and "Imaginaries" –, the exhibition will allow visitors to revisit memories and
recognize the process of formation of identities and cultural movements .
