Paralela Architecture and Arts : What constitutes you? (2018)
Paralela Arquitetura e Artes : O que te constitui?
Cultural Event and Architectural Exhibitions Circuit
Elisabete Anderle Cultural Award 2017
National Council for Architecture and Urbanism Award (CAU) 2018
The event was held weeks before the 2018 national elections, named ‘What constitutes you?’ after the 30th anniversary of Brazil’s Democratic Constitution. The artistic and curatorial direction prioritized works of arts and architectural interventions that blurred the line between the concept of constitution, both the Magna Carta of Brazilian laws and the subjective and bio-political constitution of bodies and society.
The event endeavored to debate democracy, sociability, and minorities’ invisibility in the urban context by positioning works that directly engaged the target audience in key spots, such as transit hubs and public spaces of reference. Furthermore, we curated projects and visual manifestations of local architectural and urban art production, bringing them to light to social-vulnerable audiences. In a total, the event held 33 installations, artistic interventions, exhibitions, and public debates thought the city, impacting over 10,000 people. As a curatorial drive, the team questioned architectural logic as a product and object in the current southern Brazilian creative market. Our actions were directed to claiming the architect position as a political actor and an urban change maker.
