Cuba, Ficción y Fantasia
Editorial, Exhibition Design, Identity, Print
Featuring works by some of Cuba’s most important contemporary artists—including Ana Mendieta, Iván and Yoan Capote, José Bedia, Juan Carlos Alom, Los Carpinteros, Marta María Pérez Bravo, Tania Bruguera, and Tonel—Cuba: Ficción y Fantasía spans more than three decades of the country’s artistic production. Bringing together different generations, languages, and perspectives, the exhibition addresses recurring themes in the Cuban experience, including mystery, religion, mysticism, repression, and political struggle. Across photography, video, installation, painting, sculpture, and performance, the works reveal how fiction and fantasy can become tools for interpreting a reality shaped by political tensions and social transformations. Without proposing a single or definitive reading, the exhibition builds a multifaceted panorama of Cuban art in which imagination, spirituality, humor, and criticism mingle as forms of resistance and reinvention.
Pacto Visual 5 brings four international artists and four Brazilian artists together through nominations and interviews. The book investigates affinities, tensions, and ties to Brazil, turning another person’s gaze into a pact for new forms of closeness and possibility.
Simplexidade helps organizations operate in complex contexts without confusing complexity with complication. We applied this approach to the visual identity through graphics that explore the organic–digital duality and build on the idea of the power of relationships when integrated.
Clarice Lispector’s website at Instituto Moreira Salles offers two paths: one freer and more unpredictable, inviting visitors to explore the work through discoveries and detours, and another more direct. Manuscripts, letters, and documents from the archive reveal different readings and ways of (re)encountering Clarice.
“I think you should dream the earth, because it has a heart and breathes.” The sentence that opens the book also opens the editorial project, guiding an open visual identity that breathes, welcomes, and warms. Terra Sem Males connects the Guarani myth of a life without suffering with the work of ten artists. Written by João Vergara, the book weaves together art, history, and imagination to ask how we might live better on an imperfect earth.
