Nine Painters From One Rio Studio Show for Free
Nine painters from a Tijuca studio show free at Rio's Correios cultural centre to 10 October, after the venue nearly lost its whole season. The post Nine Painters From One Rio Studio Show for Free appeared first on The Rio Times .
In 2017, nine painters from the Escola de Belas Artes, a fine arts school at the federal university of Rio, gathered at the Ateliê Oruniyá studio in Tijuca for weekly Monday evening sessions. These sessions spanned seven years, during which the artists drew, painted, and discussed art, film, poetry, folk traditions, and their craft.
The studio's curator, Ayla de Oliveira, shared that early fears of limited market space for their figurative work proved unfounded. Despite facing discrimination, the Brazilian art market continued to grow, with a 21% increase in 2023 compared to the previous year. The exhibition, titled "Inefável Presença," features works that highlight Brazilian domestic life and culture rather than grand themes.
