"In view of the immense challenge imposed by the pandemic, the Ema Klabin House Museum, like all museums and cultural institutions in the world, He also started to reflect on his possibilities of digital performance, that can no longer be seen as a replica of physical experience, but as something of an entirely different nature. We continued with an intense research on Ema Klabin and the collection she put together, exploring the themes that are in our constitution, like collecting, female protagonism and support for the most diverse forms of artistic production, cultural and educational. We continue to seek to connect these elements to the contemporary world and, now, we face the digital reality", comments Paulo, who developed, in the pandemic period, the digital exhibitions “Ballad of Terror and 8 Variations ", by Maria Bonomi, "War Disasters", by Francisco de Goya and "The Spanish Forger", this last one published last May.
