“Encruzilhadas: We Believe in Street Corners” brought together seven sound offerings by 29 Brazilian artists. The exhibition invited the whole body to listen to scenes, voices, sounds, and expressions, turning the street corner—that place at the edge—into a gathering point for cosmologies. With our feet on the ground and our eyes on the sky, we set out to develop an identity born from the idea of representing the present moment: a mix of the power of ancestral rites and sound technologies, guided by one path—the presence of Exu in every creation. To visually translate the exhibition’s concept, we created a symbolic universe of images directly or indirectly connected to the orixá, bringing this entire crossroads together in a single place: the now.
Cuba: Ficción y Fantasía spans more than three decades of the country’s artistic production. Across different generations and languages, the exhibition reveals how imagination, spirituality, humor, and criticism become ways of reinventing Cuban reality.
Ateliês do Rio enters the creative spaces of ten artists from different practices and generations. Photographs by Vicente de Mello and interviews by João Vergara reveal the studio as a living archive, a laboratory, and an extension of each work.
An engineer, urban planner, feminist, and key figure in the making of MAM Rio, Carmen Portinho made the act of designing an instrument of social transformation. The exhibition tells her story and brings together works that reveal the breadth of her thinking.
ICCI strengthens public debate on climate, democracy, and justice, working so that good ideas can lead to good conversations—and good conversations can help build a better country. We developed a visual and verbal identity that translates this vision into a graphic system designed to clarify complex topics while combining precision with institutional presence in contemporary, accessible communication.
