Gabriel Junqueira (Fortaleza, Ceará, 1992) is a multimedia artist who explores the relationships between body, technology and materiality in supports such as digital images, sculptures and installations.

His recent research revolves around the relationship between built spaces and nature through the creation of landscapes in 3D architectural visualization software, commonly used in the real estate market to simulate structures to be built. Seeking inspiration from corporate architecture and landscaping concepts, the artist creates impossible locations, where figurative elements are rearranged to abstraction.

As an extension of his research in visual arts, since 2018 he has been dedicated to the musical project “Naves Cilíndricas”. In 2020, he released two albums: “Imagens de Desastres Em Alta Resolution” by the Meia Vida label and “Névoa” by the Domina label.

Arte Pará
C

Arte Pará reached, in 2022, its 40th edition and arose from the project idealized by the journalist Romulo Maiorana (1922-1986), at the beginning of the 1980s, to create a space to support Para artists and a dialogue between the North region and the country. At a time in history when the Amazon was not generating expectations on a global scale, Maiorana awakened the public’s sensibility through the social function of art, from space for meeting and encouraging artists.
Arte Pará was born with the vocation of establishing the presence of the Amazon on the map of the arts as a salon. Throughout its uninterrupted editions, it has become a national art and education project and a place for intellectual exchange between artists, curators, and cultural agents, as well as a space for reflection and criticism, which legitimises young emerging artists. For over 20 years, Paulo Herkenhoff, one of the country’s most relevant art critics and thinkers, has been leading Arte Pará as the event’s general curator.
With a professional trajectory that articulates institutional work and innovative research, Paulo was assistant curator in the painting and sculpture department at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, MoMA (1999-2002), general curator of the São Paulo Biennial and curator of the Brazilian Pavilion at the 47th Venice Biennial. He was a consultant for the IX Kassel Documenta in Germany (1991). For him, Arte Pará has “an important role in the socialization of art, developed through the educational process, much more than the art market”.
The educational project of Arte Pará is one of the most comprehensive in the national context and offers a parameter of the relationship between a complex of communication and the social insertion of art.

Bisagra
C
Bisagra is an art collective which aims to function as an articulation point in the fragmented world of the visual arts in Lima and Latin America, creating the conditions for art production while, at the same time, encouraging connections between art theory, pedagogy and activism. The project opened its doors to the public in 2014 as an independent and grassroot art space, privileging the creation of critical content around contemporary art through a varied public program constituted by workshops, symposia, residencies, publications, performances and exhibitions. Throughout its initial years, Bisagra’s program has always been context responsive, fostering alternative communities to contest the dominant homophobia, patriarchy and racism that, until today, shape the status quo in Lima. Currently the collective works as a nonprofit organization in which collaboration and hospitality are core values. Indeed, in alliance with different partners in crime we have focused in developing heterogeneous artistic platforms which respond and enact the epistemological, ethical and political horizons we wish would exist in Lima, Peru and beyond. Bisagra’s most recent endeavor is the “Programa de destinos y presagios compartidos” an experimental educational program directed to Peruvian artists and cultural agents. The collective is currently formed by the curators Miguel A. López, Florencia Portocarrero and the artists Eliana Otta, Iosu Aramburu, Andrés Pereira Paz and Juan Diego Tobalina.   Guest curators of edition #4 of Pivô Satélite (2022) .

Gabriel Junqueira (Fortaleza, Ceará, 1992) is a multimedia artist who explores the relationships between body, technology and materiality in supports such as digital images, sculptures and installations.

His recent research revolves around the relationship between built spaces and nature through the creation of landscapes in 3D architectural visualization software, commonly used in the real estate market to simulate structures to be built. Seeking inspiration from corporate architecture and landscaping concepts, the artist creates impossible locations, where figurative elements are rearranged to abstraction.

As an extension of his research in visual arts, since 2018 he has been dedicated to the musical project “Naves Cilíndricas”. In 2020, he released two albums: “Imagens de Desastres Em Alta Resolution” by the Meia Vida label and “Névoa” by the Domina label.

Invited curator Pivô Satellite #3

The Instagram profile @newmemeseum was created in late July 2020. One of the main motivations was the desire to reflect, with humor and irony, about the mechanisms adopted to survive in/on the art world, and also about the mechanisms that the art world imposes on us - at first sight, opaque and incomprehensible. Often, the memes created are about personal experiences. The @newmemeseum performed the virtual occupation Combater ficção com ficção in the project ofício:webat at Sesc Pompeia, São Paulo, which was on view from July to August 2021. Soon, it will inaugurate the occupation part of Pivô Satelitte's third edition, entitled Sex, Lies and Videotape, curated by Raphael Fonseca.   Participating of Pivô Satellite #3
Daughter of the mysterious entrails of mother Bahia, from where arteries of living waters sustain in faith, abound. Ventura Profana (Salvador, 1993) prophesizes multiplication and abundant black, indigenous and transvestite life. She breaks the haze: erotic, atomic, taking red as religion. Her doctrine comes from Baptist temples, she is a missionary pastor, evangelist singer, writer, composer, and visual artist, whose practice is rooted in researching the implications and methodologies of deuteronomism in Brazil and abroad, through the spread of neopentecostal churches. The oil of daisies, jiboias and reginas run down the paths until it floods her with desire: anointing. It praises, like the nailing of a dagger licked with cerol and rust in Pharisaic hearts.

Through other perspectives, new visions of the self. His work is also an obsession with entering layers of the invisible, inhabiting fragilities, accumulating movements that wish to blur certainties and dispute narratives. To betray words and produce images to touch with your eyes.

The sayings and non-sayings of laughter
26 OCT - 26 NOV, 2020

“The sayings and non-sayings of laughter” is the theme of the 1st edition of Seminários Engraçados, a work by Raylander Mártis dos Anjos that proposes a set of free conferences on laughter in the Brazilian and international context. In the work that weaves satire with the basis of her research on choralities, Mártis investigates the themes that involve laughter, play and humor on historical, aesthetic and political levels.

Pulling nervous laughs out of us, the seminar also brings play itself out into the open and leads us to think that the masks we wear make us hide our smiles. Thus, as we say our goodbyes to Satélite, the artist fables with the festivities and revelers, turning the somersault into an episteme to escape the moral imperative of destruction.

The seminar will be mediated by Raylander Mártis dos Anjos and clown Fiapo Marrom.

A artista e pesquisadora Raylander Mártis dos Anjos e a palhaça Fiapo Marrom, em parceria com o espaço Pivô Arte e Pesquisa, celebram a 1ª edição dos Seminários Engraçados. O projeto tem como tema Os ditos e os não ditos do riso, e propõe um conjunto de conferências e ações gratuitas sobre o riso no contexto brasileiro e internacional.

Seminários Engraçados considera pensar o riso como um campo de disputa e de imaginação política. O que está em jogo quando reivindica-se ou abdica-se do direito de rir? Essa edição considera também investigar para qual lugar o riso pode nos levar coletivamente, por isso foi urgente investigar as resistências que se fazem no campo dos festejos e das comemorações.

Uma revolução também acontece na brincadeira e na diversão. É preciso ampliar as maneiras de lutar uma guerra, e rir junto é uma delas. Quais portais se abrem em um ajuntamento coletivo, como no Cavalo Carinho, Festas Juninas e Congados Mineiros, patrimônios imateriais do povo e espaços ancestrais do encontro?

O riso está em constante disputa. Seja no campo da história da arte, que possui uma pedagogia das imagens e da representação do riso; seja na tradição popular e religiosa, na qual a resistência se faz no empenho coletivo para os encontros; seja no campo moral e ético, que estabelecem os postulados, os campos de negociações e tensões de uma sociedade.

É urgente lembrar que ser alvo de uma risada pode abrir uma ferida purulenta e potencialmente incurável no corpo. Esse é o caso relatado por crianças que se comportam de modo não normativo e são vítimas de piadas por colegas e professores do ensino regular. O riso, portanto, em muitos contextos pode ser usado como uma ferramenta bélica, e é urgente compreender a sua letalidade.

Sendo o riso também essa arma letal, como interpretá-lo em um contexto forjado pelas políticas de morte contra os povos negros, as comunidades transvestigêneres e pessoas de classes não favorecidas economicamente? Falamos aqui sobre um território assombrado pelo mito da democracia racial; assombrado pelo travesticídio; e assombrado pelos inúmeros processos de sujeição que reatualizam a mecânica colonial de mundo. Em ambos os casos existem corpos a serem nomeados, responsabilizados e entendidos como a raiz desse projeto grotesco.

Por último, é importante comentar sobre a urgência de realizar no contexto da 1ª edição do projeto ações inscritas numa produção de saberes do corpo. Para além de encontros que visam investigar o riso através dos livros e dos arquivos, busca-se também anunciar a produção de pensamento através das grafias do corpo em movimento e na vocalidade, como discute a pensadora Leda Maria Martins.

Os corpos, juntos, são o espaço de produção de pensamento. Seja por meio de um encontro histórico entre os festejos populares brasileiros; seja por meio de cenas curtas de palhaços; seja por meio do circo, que invade a instituição; seja por meio de uma apresentação oral. Seminários Engraçados defende que o riso é uma expressão que precisa ser vivida em sua integralidade, para assim compreendermos sua potência revolucionária.

No país e no mundo das assimetrias, quem brinca de rir entra pra guerra.

Que abram as porteiras para o riso, salve-se quem puder!

Serviço:

Seminários Engraçados é um conjunto de proposições a longo prazo, e conta com a coordenação e mediação da artista e pesquisadora Raylander Mártis dos Anjos e da palhaça Fiapo Marrom.

Data: em breve!

Programação:

 

Dia 01 – Segunda-feira

Manhã – O circo reencanta o museu – Cerimônia de abertura da 1ª edição do projeto continuado Seminários Engraçados.

Com a tarefa de inaugurar as atividades e de produzir um retorno ao encantatório no museu, a ação abre passagem para a 1ª edição dos Seminários Engraçados. Reunindo um grupo de circenses brasileiros, para conjuntamente invadir as paredes da instituição e erguer uma tenda de circo, onde tudo pode acontecer.

Tarde – Entradas clownescas e performatividades bobas.

As entradas clownescas são basicamente cenas curtas e dialogadas, interpretadas pelo clown branco e por um ou mais augusto. Elas foram documentadas por Tristan Rémy, em um livro publicado em 1962. As entradas sobreviveram através das gerações pela transmissão oral, cada palhaço construiu a sua maneira única de apresentá-las no picadeiro. A vida dos artistas do circo, pessoas da estrada, se reflete nas entradas clownescas. Para entender essa complexa trama nômade, abordaremos as entradas O restaurante, O barbeiro e O alfaiate. O que escapa dos bastidores e se revela nas entradas?

Noite – Breve panorama sobre a ética e a moral do riso.

Como definiram-se os valores éticos e morais do riso? Quais pressupostos regulam aquilo que é ou não é risível? O autor propõe explorar os conceitos de ética e moral do riso, traçando um panorama histórico que leva em consideração o século X até a contemporaneidade. A comunicação se estabelece em três eixos norteadores: rir com o outro, rir do outro e rir para o outro.

 

Dia 02 – Terça-feira

Manhã – Cenas de um Brasil cômico e em chamas.

Aproximações entre a concepção de grotesco e o atual cenário brasileiro são a proposta. Pautando as atrocidades institucionalizadas pelas bandas de cá, a comunicação defende que muitas vidas experimentam diariamente uma espécie de cena grotesca, como as cenas pintadas por Hieronymus Bosch. Utilizaremos a equação proposta por Muniz Sodré e Raquel Paiva: Grotesco = Homem # Animal + Riso.

Tarde – Mestiça: um romance brasileiro e o risível no século XX.

A apresentação parte dos estudos sobre o romance Mestiça (1944), de Gilda de Abreu que deu origem à peça de circo-teatro A Mestiça (1951), do Circo Nerino. Pretende-se discutir essas duas fontes artístico-documentais, politicamente alinhadas ao projeto de mestiçagem e de harmonia racial no Brasil do século XX.

Noite – Um flerte entre o nariz vermelho e o riso.

A palhaçaria ocidental, cujas características visuais mais marcantes são o nariz vermelho e a maquiagem no rosto, se espalhou para além do continente europeu, produzindo uma certa “história única” da comicidade no mundo. Esse imaginário, ao mesmo tempo que fabricado, também suprimiu outras formas de cômico tradicionais e ancestrais. Apresentaremos um panorama histórico sobre a palhaçaria ocidental e discutiremos o papel do nariz vermelho no seu processo de globalização. A menor máscara do mundo colonizou o riso nas Américas?

 

Dia 03 – Quarta-feira

Manhã – E se Cabral usasse calças jeans?

A palhaça Urucum reencena o “descobrimento do Brasil”, interpretando o tirano Pedro Álvares Cabral. Seu personagem usa um par de calças jeans, fabricado no ano de 2020 por uma grife de roupas internacional, que mantém suas costureiras em situação de trabalho amigavelmente forçado.

Tarde – Coral de Risos: discussões em torno de projetos recusados.

Compreender as dinâmicas que balizam as aprovações de projetos artísticos e a consequente recusa de outros. Na oportunidade será utilizado o projeto recusado Coral de Risos como estudo de caso. O projeto consiste num laboratório coletivo, que se desdobra na instalação Espaço do Riso e na apresentação pública da obra Risatório, pensado para e com as imediações de um parque brasileiro. Coral de Risos é a continuidade de uma pesquisa que a artista Raylander Mártis dos Anjos chama de produção de coralidades: reunião e ajuntamento de pessoas que se debruçam durante alguns meses em investigações sobre temas como o choro, o riso, a morte ou a vida. Ela parte dos estudos sobre os arrecifes de corais, onde inúmeros seres dividem um mesmo espaço, um lugar comum.

Noite – O direito ao riso na história da arte: entre a brincadeira, a coralidade e a pirueta no tempo chronos.

Lançando um olhar sobre a representação do riso na história da arte, a presente fala percorre pinturas, desenhos, fotografias e esculturas de artistas nacionais e internacionais que retratam em suas obras essa expressão. Entenderemos na oportunidade o riso como uma potente prática coletiva e seu poder de reconfigurar, em gestos de torção e pirueta, a concepção de tempo cronológico, cuja linearidade e consecutividade são heranças de um mundo ocidental. Quem pode rir e representar o riso na história da arte?

 

Dia 04 – Quinta-feira

Manhã – Violências por detrás da gargalhada: fobias de raça, gênero e classe no Brasil.

Quais assimetrias são reveladas quando um corpo branco, cisgênero e de classe economicamente dominante utiliza o riso como produção de diferença? Quais correspondências podemos perceber nas violências que atravessam os corpos não privilegiados e a diversão e entretenimento das elites? Como se articulam as fobias de raça, gênero e classe em contexto nacional e quais são as suas aproximações com a risada e a gargalhada?

Tarde – Minha primeira exposição individual: dez dicas de como beijar de língua curadores, galeristas e artistas – um palhaço em cena curtíssima.

A cena curta conta a saga do palhaço Cacareco, que tenta emplacar a sua primeira exposição individual em uma galeria comercial de São Paulo. Cacareco é um palhaço forasteiro e encontra, na cidade grande, muitas aventuras e dificuldades.

Noite – Brincantes não ocidentais e a resistência afro-americana nos cafundós do mundo.

Traçar um olhar cuidadoso sobre as resistências afro-americanas e seus brincantes, como Mateus, Bastião e Catirina do Cavalo Marinho. Discutir as tentativas de apagamento, de demonização desses brincantes e as resistências dessas tradições frente aos processos de dominação do riso. Compreender a cosmovisão filosófica e religiosa através dos aparatos que constituem essas resistências, como cantos, cortejos, festejos, cenários, objetos cerimoniais, adereços, figurinos e danças. Como base para a proposta tem-se um conjunto de entrevistas realizadas em todo o território nacional nos últimos dez anos, vivências nas brincadeiras e o pensamento de Leda Maria Martins que compõe as performances da oralitura e a encruzilhada.

 

Dia 05 – Sexta-feira

Manhã – O gênero engraçado.

Ao erguer o conceito de gênero engraçado a proposta busca analisar a historicização da travesti como um corpo risível. Desde matérias em jornais, livros e produções audiovisuais das décadas de 1980, 1990 e 2000, será explorado o imaginário construído pela cisgeneridade sobre os corpos das travestis e a ficção de um gênero engraçado, que atrela esse corpo político ao cômico. Na ocasião, a proposta busca também compreender o gênero engraçado como uma possibilidade de afirmação política e de luta.

Tarde – Os ditos e os não ditos do riso.

A presente mesa reúne seminaristas que integram a 1ª edição dos Seminários Engraçados em um diálogo transversal e em formato de roda. Será debatido o grande tema desta edição: Os ditos e os não ditos do riso.

Noite – Encontro nacional dos festejos populares brasileiros – Cerimônia de encerramento da 1ª edição do projeto continuado Seminários Engraçados.

Encerrando as atividades, a cerimônia propõe reunir, pela primeira vez na história, grupos dos festejos populares de todo o território Brasileiro e seus respectivos brincantes. Para esse grande ajuntamento e celebração coletiva, o corpo apresenta-se por meio de voleios, piruetas, rodopios, gingados, dribles, cambalhotas, sussurros, gritos, cantorias, arranjos e improvisos. O corpo inscreve-se nas páginas do mundo e nas temporalidades que se encruzilham.

Fiapo Marrom, dois mil e pouco

Brincante palhaça. De tão sem graça passou a ser engraçada. Só tem duas peças de roupa: um macacão velho de cor marrom, que comprime suas nádegas e coxas; e uma botina marrom de sola arregaçada, que ganhou de uma velha sacana que passava pela estrada. Para ter o seu primeiro nariz vermelho teve que vender outros cem, mas não queriam pagar nem cinco reais por eles. Aprendeu a perder, pra depois ganhar. Hoje anda afastada do nariz vermelho, brigou com ele também. Descobriu a habilidade de rir com o mundo e fazer bobajada, conhecimento herdado de brincantes e palhaças mais velhas. Mente como ninguém, mas tudo que diz é tão verdade que ela parece quase gente.

Mateus do Cavalo Marinho, não sei se tem 90 ou 10 anos

É preto livre que viveu o tempo do cativeiro. É preto que pinta a cara de preto, de caivão, pra reverenciar os seus antepassados africanos. Pinta sua cara de preto e faz graça pra denunciar e nunca esquecer. Anda solto pelo mundo. Mora onde não mora ninguém. Por onde vai lega seu matulão (mudança) de paia de bananeira, que é tudo o que tem e, “se queimar não dá uma colher de cinza”. Usa um chapéu colorido na cabeça, sua antena, porque a “cabeça não pode ficar descoberta”. Carrega uma bexiga de boi, que serve pra bater e fazer “musga”. Trabalha tomando conta de terreiros. “Toma conta e não dá conta”. É o primeiro a entrar e o último a sair. Gosta de samba quente, e para manter a chama da brincadeira acesa, dá seus gritos de “Riba, pareia!”. É profissional de caretas. Caretas boas de espantar maus espíritos, tão feias que chegam a fazer rir. Escolheu a menina Cibele como cavalo. Montado nela, ele também é ela? Mateus Cibele, Cibele Mateus. Cara melada de encantaria. Cara melada pra empretecer e encantar.

@ru_anus, 2015

Trav-A-rtista de Nova Iguaçu-RJ, passou por Curitiba – PR e agora reside em São Paulo – SP. Interessada nas redes sociais e nos movimentos de corpos trans_navegantes em rede. @ru_anus é o gatilho na constituição de sua narrativa em se dizer artista. O início, ao se fazer comunicar/trans_navegar. “@ru_anus” é espaço, um caminho, o local em que se experimenta estar. Através da plataforma do Instagram criou perfil como local de se expor e se ver. Atribuindo um novo local ao público, que experimenta seus trabalhos na tela de celular, o que liga a artista e o público são algoritmos que se distribuem em redes, cabos, satélites, bancos de dados. Nele, escolhe documentar processos de seu corpo que transiciona, fotos que privilegiam as mudanças, os devires, captar em já, um peito que cresce, um cabelo que se modifica, um ânus que se alarga. Ali se pretende imaginar o que poderia ser esse corpo, sem estancar uma identidade, e por meio de edições das fotos, escolhas das cores, posições, materializar “esse poderá ser do corpo”, em alguma hora em um processo que dura.
