O ar que nos une ( The air that unites us): an exhibition designed to be seen by those who pass by on the street.
On October 12 the exhibition “ O ar que nos une” ( The air that unites us) curated by Galciani Neves opened at the outside area of MuBE ( Museu Brasileiro de Escultura e Ecologia) overlooking the Avenida Europa, at the Jardins neighborhood in Sao Paulo.
The exhibition features works in the external area of the MuBE, which remains closed. The works of Ana Teixeira, Artur Lescher, Laura Vinci, Motta & Lima, Paulo Bruscky and Yoko Ono can be seen by pedestrians walking along the sidewalk and by drivers and passengers of public and private transport passing along. The title of the show is freely inspired by a text by Yoko Ono.
These issues present in the exhibition that takes place during the waiting period for the reopening of cultural spaces in the city of São Paulo are directly connected with the discussions and urgencies emerged during the pandemic. As further explained in the exhibition’s press release: “As a breath – the first and also the last of a lifetime. In inspiration, when the world enters us; at expiration, when we project ourselves out. In the air live the history of the world, our affinities, our relationships, our distances, our displacements. We may think that air is a corporeity, in which our experiences merge, cross, become inherent things among all things. As the Italian philosopher Emanuele Coccia explains: to live is to breathe, to mix, to be immersed, is "the experience of being in something, which in turn is in us" (2018).”
