Images that move within the night, different than the crepuscular and magnetic light that characterizes his well-known works, in which the images come into sight full of surreal colors.\r\n\r\nLuiz Braga approaches not only the geography, cultural references, the popular traditions and the people of northern Brazil, but also carries an expressive emotional batch, full of human values and free of exoticism and stereotypes, just because of the originality and ability that he captures the confrontation between the natural and artificial light, settling the eye land \u2013 an inalienable place \u2013 with memories, colors and smells.\r\n\r\nIn opposition to this work, Luiz Braga presents at Galeria Leme a selection of nighttime images, a new moment in his path ruled by the subversion of the color.\r\n\r\nIn the current stage, the snapshot of the end of the day is banished to give place to bountiful times to photograph, searching the lights hidden in the most hasty eyes. Then, the series of nighttime images, full of bright stars, unquiet leaves, strident moons and distant boats, all sheltered by the distinct dark-blue of the equatorial nights.\r\n\r\nThe long exposure photograph allows Luiz Braga not only to strengthen the search of new ways to photograph - a constant in his life \u2013 but also keep the investigation on the effects of light on the visible world. Translated to an extended gaze this images are free of the territorial restrictions that characterizes, in some way, the language of the artist until now.\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout the artist:\r\n\r\nLuiz Braga (Bel\u00e9m, Par\u00e1 - 1956).
