Author Description

The exhibition "The Years of Living Dangerously", curated by Marcos Moraes, proposes a reflection on the Brazilian art of the second half of the sixties, with its diversity of atmosphere marked by the presence of danger and threat, promoting an articulation with exhibitions that, 50 years ago, directed the artistic investigations experimentally. The exhibition consists of fifty works from the MAM collection, made between 1965 and 1970. "The show brings togheter from pop trends to works of surrealist influence, many of which express the social and behavioral concerns that marked the era." --Page 6.
