This Monday (19) in your ANBA Bulletin: Isaura Daniel brings a story on fine artist Denise Milan. A third-generation Lebanese immigrant, she makes art using stones to engage in a conversation with the public on survival, coexistence, humanity, and even her grandparents' 19th century journey to Brazil. “Survival or disappearance was also the drama of those travelers, those migrants. Would they disappear or would they survive in those brand new lands?”, said the artist. A solo project by Milan is on display in the 33rd São Paulo International Art Biennial. And Brazil's pavilion in Dubai's Expo 2020 will feature water as a key element. The winning project from the National Public Architecture and Exhibit Design Contest at Expo Dubai 2020 was done by architecture firm JPG.ARQ. “The poetic motto is the Rio Negro [Black River], a very important Brazilian river. It’s is black because it’s full of organic matter from the decomposition of the forest. It carries a symbolism that shines a light in a Brazil that is unknown. From the riverside landscapes, the river bank communities. It is not the Brazil of the maritime coast,” JPG.ARQ project development coordinator José Paulo Gouvêa told ANBA's Thais Sousa. And this Tuesday (20) will see the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce host another lecture at Vale do Itajaí University (Univali) in Santa Catarina. This time around the subject will be logistics in Brazil's trade with Arab countries. The speaker will be the Chamber's Information Management coordinator Marcus Vinícius Pillon. |
