Descripción de la Exposición
With "Patuá/Patois", Paulo Nazareth presents a comprehensive retrospective at WIELS, highlighting more than two decades of artistic practice. Through two powerful symbols of survival and resilience, Nazareth explores the interplay of memory, language, and ritual in communities shaped by Afro-Brazilian, Indigenous, and anti-colonial struggles. The exhibition seeks to link to Brussels—a city where language and identity are central to social and political life.
Paulo Nazareth (old man, Brasil) lives and works throughout the world. His work is often the result of precise and simple gestures, which bring about broader ramifications, raising awareness to press issues of immigration, racialization, globalization, colonialism, and its effects in the production and consumption of art in his native Brazil and the Global South.
