Summary
Several avant-garde trends are covered in the exhibition Ordem e Progresso: Vontade Construtiva na Arte Brasileira, (Order and Progress: Constructive Will in Brazil Art). The assembly part of a concept defined by Hlio Oiticica in 1967, wrote the text written for the exhibition. He defined the term constructive will as the form found here to assimilate foreign cultural aspects, digest them and then create something totally new and personal. Still, weve always lived a tendency to ebb and flow, says curator Philip Chaimovich. The national production could draw its strength precisely from the conflict between personal identity and foreign influence, he adds. The selection ranges from Concrete and Neoconcretists artists, such as Lygia Pape and Lothar Charoux, the names of video art like Mauricio Dias and Walter Riedweg, photos of Brasilia recorded by Thomaz Farkas and Mauro Restiffe. The period of military rule yields more political works, including that of Regina Silveira and the Argentinian Len Ferrari (who lived in So Paulo from 1976 to 1991). It is also evident the presence of Beatriz Milhazes, creator of the painting Love, and Meireles, with the installation entitled camel.
