Eröffnung der Ausstellung Jonathas de Andrade: Olho da Rua [Out Loud]

In the organizer's words:

The first solo exhibition by Brazilian artist Jonathas de Andrade will open in a German institution on May 23, 2025 at 6 pm. In his installations, photographs and videos, he deals with power dynamics and conflicts, particularly in north-eastern Brazil and in Recife, where he lives and works.

At the heart of the exhibition is Andrade's film Olho da Rua [Out Loud] (2022), in which Augusto Boal's Theater of the Oppressed meets the streets of Recife, with the public space appearing as a place of community and agitation. For his film, the artist portrayed a temporary community of homeless people living in the city center of Recife.
