ANTONIO MALTA CAMPOSOBRAS/ARTWORKS

Antonio Malta Campos. São Paulo, Brazil, 1961. Lives and works in São Paulo, Brazil.

The work of Antonio Malta Campos is characterized by the systematic exploration of both abstract and figurative schools of painting. Free from stylistic formulas, Malta absorbs and filters inspirations with from various different sources. His work reshapes and reactivates formal elements found on Modernism together with a reignition of figurative elements so rooted in the historical tradition of painting. The proposal of Malta´s work is to discuss and reflect on how painting can once again represent an important means of producing images within the universe of contemporary art. Antonio Malta Campos career start can be traced back to the constitutions of “Casa 7 Studio”, group formed by artists and in which he stayed until 1983. In 1985, in São Paulo, he held his first solo exhibition. In the 90s and after a brief period of time exercising his creativity as an architect Antonio Malta resumed his artistic career.

JESSICA MEINOBRAS/ARTWORKS

Jessica Mein. São Paulo, Brazil, 1975. Lives and works in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Mein’s work questions the physicality and spatiality of images and further subverts the boundaries and hierarchies between image and the support that sustains it, surface and structure. The artist uses collage, drawing and video to discuss the shock between the use of digital technologies and mechanical means of reproduction, and her own manual action, which is inevitably liable to error.

LUCIANO FIGUEIREDOOBRAS/ARTWORKS

Luciano Figueiredo. Fortaleza, Brazil, 1948. Lives and works in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Figueiredo started painting in the 1960s with Adam Firnekaes, formerly a Bauhaus student who had taught art studies at the Goethe Institute in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. While in London, between 1972 and 1978, Figueiredo carried out studies in Art History and English Literature. During that same period, he began his research using newspaper prints, following his visual poems made with cutout words, colour stains, and British tabloids. His investigation led, since 1975, to the construction of three-dimensional objects with collages, wire meshes, and monochromatic reliefs, represented in exhibitions held in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo from 1984 onwards. The artist asserted himself as an exponent of the Brazilian counterculture movement in the 1970s through the production of music performances’ scenography, graphic design projects, and thanks to his participation in the historic publication Navilouca. In his latest works Relevos (Reliefs), Luciano accumulates several layers of painted canvas and makes geometric compositions by assembling them. The artist wants to achieve the point of suspension of shapes and colours, as if they were “floating”, in what he calls “possibilities for colour and space in suspension”. In this body of work we can still sense some traces of his previous exploration related to the manipulation of the newsprint.

Solo exhibitions: Figures et Formes Géométriques, Marcel Fleiss Galerie, Paris, France (2017); Galeria Leme, São Paulo, Brazil (2015); Cor, Plano: Suspensão, Galeria Lurix, Rio de Janeiro.

MAURO PIVAOBRAS/ARTWORKS

Mauro Piva.Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1977. Lives and works in São Paulo, Brazil.

Painting on paper and canvas, with watercolour, gouaches and acrylic, Mauro Piva reveals a reflection on his own day-to-day life in his first series of works in which flowers, white paper sheets, pencils and papers become distinguished possibilities of self-portraits. From a figurative interest in the beginning of his career, Piva has evolved from a quasi-abstract approach to composition. In his latest series, Piva appropriates the works from other artists and reworks them in an almost abstract manner, allowing only a few of the creation’s original characteristics to be recognized by the spectator. For the series presented at Cabinet AA2000, Mauro Piva stated that: “Following the research on how to portray myself and other artists through the representation of color tests, I began to imagine how would be the tests and color tests of artists that do not have the habit of doing them, or that in their works this stage is not required. The works are tributes to artists where I do not make a direct reference to a particular work or the artist himself, but to the painting processes. I wonder what their color choices, gestures, and creative processes would look like”.

Solo exhibitions: Instituto Figueiredo Ferraz, Ribeirão Preto, Brazil (2017); Galeria Leme, São Paulo, Brazil (2016); XIX Festival da Cultura Inglesa, Centro Cultural Britânico, São Paulo, Brazil; O grande tufo de ervas.
