S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Visual artist Jo\u00e3o Trevisan<\/a> is the only Brazilian to have his work exhibited in the surroundings of the Great Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. The exhibition \u201cForever is Now\u201d has ten selected works by artists from different countries. The Brazilian\u2019s sculpture is entitled \u201cThe body that rises,\u201d and he has the support of the Brazilian Embassy in Cairo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is the fourth edition of the exhibition organized by the Egyptian company Art D’\u00c9gypte<\/a>. \u201cI think the importance of participating in this event is just starting to sink in now. I just have to thank the Brazilian Embassy in Egypt,\u201d said Trevisan in an interview with ANBA.<\/p>\n

The public will have access to the artworks until November 7. The theme linking the projects is the connection of the works with the Pyramids. The event has the support of the Egyptian Ministries of Tourism and Antiquities and Foreign Affairs and is sponsored by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).<\/p>\n

The artist and the work<\/strong><\/p>\n

Born in Bras\u00edlia, the Brazilian artist has been participating in group and individual exhibitions since 2014. He was nominated for the 2019 and 2020 PIPA Awards, which honors works of visual arts. \u201cMy project is related to this thing of growing up to find the skies, but also other issues. The material I used is the sleeper; it has a memory and is part of the development of Egypt, the railway. And I treat the sleeper as if it were a body; it would be these workers who stand up and group together until they reach the top,\u201d revealed the sculptor.<\/p>\n

Sleepers, mentioned by Trevisan, are parts used in railways on which rails are fixed. The piece can be made from different materials like wood and steel. \u201cMy work consists of 75 stacked sleepers that look like a structure embracing an obelisk, but it is not there. The [concept is that] the obelisk was removed because, in Cairo\u2019s history, several obelisks were taken [out of the country]. So, the structure is still present, regardless of the obelisk not being there,\u201d detailed the artist.<\/p>\n
