AAA – Anthology of Art and Architecture
Aug 22 – Oct 17, 2020
Fortes D’Aloia & Gabriel
São Paulo, Brazil

Bergamin & Gomide and Fortes D’Aloia & Gabriel are pleased to present AAA – Anthology of Art and Architecture. Curated by Sol Camacho – urbanist, architect, Principal at RADDAR Architecture and Cultural Director of Instituto Bardi / Casa de Vidro – the show features more than 100 works by Brazilian artists, architects and designers, proposing a reflection on the social function, methods and history of architecture.

Through a timeless and decategorizing selection, AAA navigates the field of visual arts – with paintings, sculptures, and videos – and architecture – with scale models, pieces of furniture and photographs of buildings. These works feature architecture as a vocabulary: be it in the relation between the construction of spaces and its representation, in the use of civil construction materials, or in the subversion of language itself as a resource for experimenting with scale, composition and geometry.

AAA – Anthology of Art and Architecture is an unfolding of Exhibit AAA – a special project developed for Bergamin & Gomide’s stand at Expo Chicago in 2019.

    Alluvion, an exhibition of the works of British artist and intellectual Mat Collishaw, curated by Danilo Eccher, will be open to the public at M77 Gallery, Via Mecenate 77, from June 7 to October 15, 2023. Alluvion represents a new landscape modelled by material deposited by floodwaters, just as digital media floods our daily life and changes the social co-ordinates through which we manage communication, making us dependent on a world increasingly mechanised and controlled by technology, an image we find in most of Collishaw’s work.
