Marina Rheingantz
O livro Marina Rheingantz – Terra líquida apresenta um panorama da produção desta jovem artista paulista. O livro, primeira publicação monográfica da pintora, traz um ensaio do curador Rodrigo Moura e reproduz cerca de setenta imagens de obras da artista. Em suas pinturas, Marina Rheingantz realiza um processo de criação em que constrói e descontrói suas telas repetidamente com sobreposições de tinta que formam grandes campos de cor e, ao mesmo tempo, realçam elementos pontuais. Paisagens desoladas, estradas e ambientes internos surgem apenas como vestígios do real, fragmentados pela memória em uma colagem repleta de texturas.

Women, the Arts, and Dictatorship in the Portuguese-Speaking Context
This book deals with the work of twentieth-century women artists and literary authors from Portugal, Brazil and Portuguese-speaking African countries against the backdrop of political dictatorships. The essays in this volume reflect upon and challenge canonical perspectives on the arts and literature, bringing to light some of the hidden and silenced faces of Lusophone culture. By doing so, they highlight how dominant ideologies marked the artistic and literary practices of Portuguese-speaking women, and how these women in turn developed strategies of resistance through their creative work. The volume brings together contributors working in a range of disciplines, including literary criticism, the visual arts, and film studies, all of whom reflect on themes such as the reactions of women artists to authoritarianism, the representations of political repression in their work, the colonial war, and the critical revision of this historical moment by a younger generation of artists. It addresses scholars, critics, students and cultural workers with an interest in post-colonial and feminist studies in the Portuguese-speaking context.

Djanira: Picturing Brazil
Most comprehensive monograph dedicated to Djanira da Motta e Silva (Avaré, São Paulo, 1914 - Rio de Janeiro, 1979) since her death forty years ago. The title "Djanira: The Memory of Her People" - borrowed from a 1970s story by Mary Ventura - refers to the artist's trajectory, her life story and her many trips through Brazil, as well as her painting based on daily life, landscapes and Brazilian popular culture, around subjects often marginalized by elites. This exhibition includes works from all periods of Djanira's production, from the early 1940s to the late 1970s, and follows a chronological order while bringing together works from the artist's main themes: portraits and self-portraits, popular fun and celebrations, work and workers, Afro-Brazilian and Catholic religiosity, the indigenous Canela do Maranhão, among diverse Brazilian peoples and landscapes.
