With the aim of highlighting the
collective struggles of women from two axes, the
Memorial da Resistência de São Paulo presents the temporary exhibition
Women in Struggle! Archives of Political Memory , curated by Ana Pato. Using the museum's oral history collection as a guiding thread, the exhibition presents a look
from a gender perspective at the Civil-Military Dictatorship (1964-1985) and how the profound marks of this period intertwine with the present.
Highlight for the series
Knowing the Female Body (1984), by
Nair Benedicto (1940–), which also occupies the museum's external mural.
Poems written by
Beatriz Nascimento (1942–1995) in the 1980s about
resistance, violence, racism and
impunity are also part of the exhibition.
