PIPA 2012 exhibition

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

 

 

From 2012-10-06 - 2012-12-02
At MAM-Rio, Rio de Janeiro

Marcius Galan APT Mexico City

From October 6th to December 2nd, Marcius Galan, Matheus Rocha Pitta, Rodrigo Braga and Thiago Rocha Pitta will show their works at MAM-Rio.

Marcius Galan and Matheus Rocha Pitta present never shown installations, Thiago Rocha Pitta shows an installation and a video and Rodrigo Braga exhibits a selection of photographies of different periods of his career.

The four finalists compete in two categories of the Prize:

- PIPA – an award of R$100,000 ( including a period of three months in the residency program at Gasworks, London). The winner will be decided by the Award Jury, composed by experts in contemporary art.

- PIPA Popular Vote Exhibition – an award of R$20,000. The visitors at the exhibition vote on their favorite finalist. The most voted is the winner.

 

The four finalists were chosen from among all nominees in 2012, by PIPA Board, based on the number of nominations received to each artist, from the Nominating Committee.

Marcius Galan was born in Indianapolis, USA, son of Brazilian parents who returned to Brazil before he could even learn to walk and talk in English. Lives and works in São Paulo, graduated in Artistic Education from FAAP in 1997.

In a short period of time and through various projects, Matheus Rocha Pitta cemented interests and strategies allowing us to identify, in a work that deepens with each new piece, critical statement on the exchange mechanisms that govern the common life.

Rodrigo Braga was born in Amazonas, raised in Recife, PE and graduated in Fine Arts from UFPE, in 2002. Currently he lives in Rio de Janeiro, and has an exhibition room at the 30ª Bienal de São Paulo.

Thiago Rocha Pitta begins to show his works in 2001, with outdoor interventions. From the beginning his work seeks an intimate relationship with nature. You could say that in his work, nature is a kind of co-author .

Review of the show of the PIPA 2011 finalists | Brazilian newspaper O Globo

October 10, 2011

United by the collapse – Finitude and setbacks of daily life permeate the works of the four young finalists of the PIPA prize.

In this text, the art critic, Marisa Flórido, says that the shortlisted artists for PIPA 2011, in their exhibition at MAM-Rio , even showing their works in different medias and poetics have a connection between them.
For her, the connection is the collapse that go through them.

She says that the collapse for these young artists is part of living, as much of its finitude as the everyday little setbacks, as much of the gears of power and the deviations from both the abysm between the narratives and images, and the open and arbitrary relationships between words and things.

Below the full story from the daily O Globo ( in Portuguese).
