Videobrasil at the Lubumbashi Biennial
The Lubumbashi Biennial, one of the leading platforms for African and international contemporary productions in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, will host a Videobrasil-curated show starting on 10.2.
This 3rd edition of the event, entitled "Rencontres Picha. Biennale de Lubumbashi 2012 I 2013" will feature the collective show How can we perceive the landscape?. Curated by Solange Farkas, the show includes work by the Brazilians Alexandre da Cunha, Bijari, Caetano Dias, Cao Guimarães, Chico Dantas, Conrado Almada, Dirceu Maués, Gabriel Azevedo, Gisela Motta & Leandro Lima, Letícia Ramos, Marcellvs L., Orlando Maneschy, and Vera Uberti. In the selection, the curator proposes new ways to understand the landscape.
Held by Picha association (Picha means “image” in Swahili), and general-curated by Elvira Dyangani Ose, the international art curator at Tate Modern since 2011, the Lubumbashi Biennial brings together photographers and video makers from the world over, in a context of exchange between renowned artists and young local talent. In a territory historically marked by domination and genocide, the free, iconoclastic environment of the Lubumbashi Biennial bears much significance to a country which conquered its independence little over 50 years ago.
