"This exhibition juxtaposes ancestral Tupi-Guarani visual philosophies with canonical modernist abstraction, challenging the viewer to reconsider the intersection of land, body, and colonial legacies."
MASP presents a groundbreaking curatorial effort mapping the evolution of Tupi-Guarani artistic expression from the pre-colonial period into contemporary abstraction. By grounding modernist movements in local indigenous traditions, the show deconstructs the Eurocentric narratives often associated with Brazilian modernism, fostering a necessary dialogue between historical artifacts and contemporary conceptual interventions across varied media.
