Description
Adriana Varejao s rich and diverse artistic oeuvre including her distinctive tile paintings, large-scale sculpture, photography and video installation embodies the mythic pluralism of Brazilian identity. Drawing upon the aesthetic traditions and visual legacy of colonialism and transnational exchange, she fuses mediums, surfaces, and historical lineages together in unprecedented ways. The resulting artwork is a metaphor for the modern world. In her first major monograph, the entirety of her rich body of work is fully explored from her earliest paintings from the 1990s to her most recent multimedia installations. The volume includes several contributions including, an extensive interview between Varejao and Jochen Volz, director of Pinacoteca de Sao Paulo; essays by Luisa Duarte, art historian and independent curator based in Sao Paulo, and Paul Preciado, influential cultural critic; an introduction by Gagosian director Louise Neri; and a chronology by art historian Angela Brown, and more.
