From 23 March to 7 April, the program heats up the engines for the largest art and design fair in Latin America
The SP–Arte promotes, between days 23 March and 7 April, the already traditional SP–Arte Circuit, this year carried out in partnership with Blue Moon: an agenda with more than 60 free cultural activities and events in art and design galleries in São Paulo.
Blue Moon is the official beer of the event.
The exhibition Funnel, by Isay Weinfeld and Lucas Jimeno, at Casa SP–Arte, start programming, that includes openings, conversations, guided tours and open workshops that liven up the city before and during the fair.
“We are very happy to be together with SP–Arte for this edition. Blue Moon believes that life should be lived with brilliance and enthusiasm, and that is exactly what we seek to promote through our support of art. We believe that artistic experiences have the power to enrich our lives with more brightness and colors. Ao celebrate-the, We also celebrate diversity, creativity and expression”, comments Ilana Lencastre, manager of the craft brands of the Heineken group.
The events are distributed across artsy neighborhoods, like pine trees, Vila Madalena, Gardens, Center, Barra Funda and Higienópolis – some routes can, including, be done on foot.
Check out some highlights below.
The complete program is available at: sp-arte.com/agenda and on the SP–Arte app (iOS and Android versions).
Casa SP–Arte
At the invitation of Fernanda Feitosa, founder and director of SP–Arte, architect Isay Weinfeld holds the exhibition at Casa SP–Arte Funnel, organized in collaboration with Lucas Jimeno.
The exhibition takes place 23 March to 30 April, in the context of commemorating 20 years of SP–Arte.
The project, which translates into contemporary art and design 50 years of Weinfeld's career, proposes an occupation of the house designed by the artist and architect Flávio de Carvalho.
In the 30, Carvalho proposed new ways of inhabiting the home and, Weinfeld, this exhibition, once again invites the public to think about an experience within this space.
Funnel is the result of a lifetime that is reflected in the choices and arrangement of works, of furniture and fabrics.
The exhibition is open to everyone's interpretation as they come across works full of symbolism, memories and affective relationships, both personal and universal.
Opening: 23 March, the 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm
