At the invitation of Sandra Hegedüs, founder of SAM Art Projects, with the complicity of Iván Argote, who is hosting the exhibition in her studio, and Sofía Lanusse, who is curating the exhibition, about twenty artists from Brazil and based in France are mobilizing against the dramatic situation in the country through an unprecedented exhibition-manifesto, supported by a program of conversations.
In order to respond collectively to the power imposed on Brazil represented by President Jair Bolsonaro and to express their dissatisfaction with the policies applied against culture, human rights and nature, the artists decided to demonstrate through their practices such as painting, sculpture, drawing, music and performance.
