Bancos em forma de insetos - Funarte Brasília

Bancos em forma de insetos

ocupam a Funarte Brasília

Grupo Fora, de Santa Catarina, inicia projeto de exposição, contemplado

com o Prêmio Funarte de Arte Contemporânea 2013 – Atos Visuais Funarte

Brasília – Marquise

Bicho banco, uma proposta de exposição do grupo Fora, composto

por artistas de Santa Catarina, conquistou o Prêmio Funarte de Arte

Contemporânea 2013 – Atos Visuais Funarte Brasília – Galeria e Marquise.

Para a intervenção, Bruna Maresch, Camila Argenta, Gabriel Scapinelli e

Nara Milioli criaram mobiliários lúdicos, feitos de madeira. Inspirados na

natureza, os cinco bancos remetem à cigarra, ao bicho-pau, à mariposa, ao

grilo e ao percevejo.

A abertura da mostra será no dia 13 de fevereiro, às 19h. A visitação ocorrerá

até o dia 16 de março, de segunda a domingo, das 9h às 21h.

Um dos mais importantes do cenário das artes visuais no Brasil, o Prêmio

Funarte de Arte Contemporânea estimula a multiplicidade e a diversidade de

linguagens, em suas variadas modalidades de manifestação. O disputado

concurso promove e difunde a produção artística; a reflexão e o intercâmbio

de ideias, no campo das artes visuais, contribuindo para a formação de

plateia e a construção da recente história da arte do país.

As estruturas-bichos formam bancos-espreguiçadeiras, que convidam o

espectador a parar, sentar, se espreguiçar e até brincar. A referência aos

insetos sugere a interação com o meio-ambiente. Articulados, os “bichos

banco” foram projetados para funcionar como elementos atrativos. Isto é: sua

adaptação no espaço prioriza a criação de fluxos de passeios e encontros.

Uma das propostas da obra é convidar o espectador a permanecer no

espaço urbano, em áreas abertas e públicas, e usufruir delas. Os “bichos”

permanecerão por um mês em exposição na Marquise da Funarte em

Brasília. Ao final da intervenção, serão doados a algum espaço público.

“Desde o início do percurso do grupo Fora, as ações propostas nos jardins

abertos de Florianópolis sempre tiveram um caráter informal. Com o

Prêmio Funarte de Arte Contemporânea 2013, estamos aprendendo outras

maneiras de trabalhar juntos. Aproveitamos a possibilidade de expandir

nossas intervenções para outra cidade, com o reconhecimento profissional

e o respaldo financeiro, além de promover encontro e amizade com outros

profissionais”, diz Camila Argenta, uma das integrantes do coletivo.

Esse projeto técnico-construtivo é um desdobramento de um bicho banco

já realizado pelo grupo Fora, em 2012 em Florianópolis. O bicho-pau está

em uma praça no bairro Santa Mônica, onde é utilizado por moradores e

passantes. A eficiência no trabalho de marcenaria das peças está assegurada

pela experiência do grupo Xilocoletivo, composto por arquitetos marceneiros,

que atuam há quatro anos na capital catarinense.

Cigarra & Cia. é o título do catálogo da mostra Bicho-banco. O texto é do

crítico e curador independente Fernando Boppré.

Sobre o Fora

A proposta do grupo Fora pode ser melhor conhecida na plataforma digital

foragrupo.hotglue.me

Desde 2010, em Florianópolis, realiza estudos e mapeamento de terrenos

baldios, acompanhados de ações, intervenções e reflexões. Com uma

atuação marcada pelos cruzamentos entre arte, arquitetura, marcenaria e

design, o coletivo aposta na apropriação experimental e efêmera de espaços

públicos e terrenos vagos, sem cercas ou muros, por meio de dispositivos

como mobiliários, canteiros de plantas daninhas, pipas, cartazes, e ainda

através da produção de eventos, piqueniques e festivais. Em cada local, os

artistas realizam as ações de acordo com as características e o contexto

do espaço a ser utilizado. A convivência nos terrenos possibilita o contato e

a troca de experiências com a população e conduz a outros processos de

interação coletiva.

Contemporary Brazilian Printmaking

Curated by Eduardo Besen, Rodrigo Naves, Priscila Sacchettin
Opening 6-8 pm: March 20, 2014
On view: March 20 - May 23, 2014

International Print Center New York presents Contemporary Brazilian Printmaking, an exhibition of fine art print projects by over fifteen artists working in Brazil today. It will be on view at 508 West 26th St, 5th Floor, from March 20 - May 23, 2014.  

Artists include: Nara Amélia, Mônica Barki, Ernesto Bonato, Ulysses Bôscolo, Marco Buti, Cleiri Cardoso, Helena Freddi, Sheila Goloborotko, Nina Kreis, Kika Levy, Fabricio Lopez, Alberto Martins, Claudio Mubarac, Laertes Ramos, Augusto Sampaio, Alexandre Sequeira, and Lambe-Lambes by Maura de Andrade, Sergio Kal, Mauricio Parra, Regina Pinto, Yili Rojas, and Carlos Henrique Soares. 

Employing a wide range of mediums, techniques and styles, the artists featured in the exhibition represent many different aspects of Contemporary Brazilian printmaking. They have been selected by a group of curators, art historians and print specialists working together to identify important trends and achievements in the field of printmaking in contemporary Brazil. For the majority of the artists, this exhibition constitutes the first showing of their work in North America. As such, it offers a long-anticipated opportunity for New York audiences to connect first-hand with Brazilian art today.  

Inheriting this tradition, the artists included in Contemporary Brazilian Printmaking resist convention, embracing technical experimentation and representing (in the words of one curator) an intuitive, if sometimes naïve, approach to the genre. This exuberance as reflected in the work of our featured artists will make for an exciting and revealing exhibition. Their techniques range from aquatint, dry point, mezzotint, and woodcut to contemporary photo etching, digital printing, and photo engraving.
 

Curators:

Eduardo Besen is co-founder of São Paulo’s Gravura Brasileira Gallery, which contains a collection of more than 3,000 works of modern and contemporary printmaking. It is the only Brazilian exhibition space that we know of dedicated solely to displaying and promoting Brazilian printmaking. With a history of organizing national and international exhibitions for emerging and renowned artists and publishing art books and print portfolios, Gravura Brasileira Gallery has become a focal point of Brazilian printmaking. A recognized authority on Brazilian printmaking, Besen has lectured widely both in Brazil and abroad on the subject.

Priscila Sacchettin is assistant curator at São Paolo’s prestigious Instituto Moreira Salles, a cultural organization promoting the development of projects in photography, literature, Brazilian music, and the visual arts. She also contributes to the Itaú Cultural Institute Brazilian Art Encyclopedia, an Internet database used by students and advanced scholars for their research projects. With a Master’s degree from the University of São Paulo, Sacchettin writes about contemporary artists as a member of the Young Critics Group of Centro Universitário Maria Antonia.

Rodrigo Naves is an art critic, art historian, and professor, has been published in numerous Brazilian magazines and newspapers and was editor of the culture supplement Folhetim (in the newspaper Folha de São Paulo). He contributed the preface to the Brazilian editions of Art and Culture by Clement Greenberg and Modern Art by Giulio Carlo Argan. He also has authored many books, including El Greco—Um mundoturvo [El Greco: A Dim World] andA Forma Difícil—Ensaios sobre Arte Brasileira [The Difficult Form: Essays on Brazilian Art]. Naves holds a Ph.D in Aesthetics from the University of São Paulo.

International Print Center New York is a non-profit institution founded to promote the greater appreciation and understanding of the fine art print. Through innovative programming, it fosters a climate for the enjoyment, examination and serious study of artists’ prints - from the old master to the contemporary.  IPCNY depends upon public and private donations to support its programs.  To contribute, or for membership information, please contactstephanie@ipcny.org.
