No âmbito da Feira do Livro do Porto, será este ano apresentado um ciclo dedicado à obra fílmica de Lynn Hershman Leeson.

Talk with Jacopo Crivelli Visconti about the 34th Bienal de São Paulo

With the “poetics of the relationship” as one of its central concepts, the 34th Bienal of São Paulo — "Faz escuro mas eu canto" — adopts an innovative format, expanding in space and time. The next edition of the Biennale, in 2020, is marked by the meeting and mutual enhancement of curatorial projects and institutional action, and involves the holding of exhibitions and actions presented at the Biennale’s Pavilion in articulation with a network of more than 20 institutions in São Paulo.

The conversation will be chaired by the curator Marta Mestre and is part of a set of presentations of the project of the 34th Bienal de São Paulo in international institutions.
