Plensa has maintained a long-standing relationship with Brazil, having first visited the country in his youth, when he developed a deep connection with the sea and the local spirituality. Since then, he has created public installations in Botafogo Bay, in Rio de Janeiro, and in Porto Alegre during the 13th Mercosul Biennial. In 2022, the artist also held his first institutional solo exhibition in Brazil, at the Oscar Niemeyer Museum in Curitiba.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The exhibition explores our connection with communal spaces and personal introspection, expanding from the solitude of the \"me\" to the collective \"us.\" Upon entering the exhibition, visitors encounter <em>Blue Hermit<\/em>, a bronze sculpture depicting a man crouched on a rock. The figure embodies isolation, enclosed within the notion of self. Plensa describes this work as \u201can individual in the midst of a flow of communities, yet without any contact.\u201d The artist frequently works with alphabets, treating them as a visual score\u2014like musical notes that, instead of sounds, form words and phrases, building bridges between silence and others.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1em; font-weight: normal; margin-top: 30px;\">Sculptures by <strong>Jaume Plensa<\/strong> and the dialogue with silence<\/h3>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In contrast, <em>Rui Rui\u2019s Words<\/em>, part of Plensa\u2019s recent exploration of suspended sculptures, features the face of a young woman with her finger pressed to her lips, a symbol of silence and contemplation. This gesture invites the viewer to pause and reflect. Within the gallery space, the two sculptures establish a silent dialogue\u2014one immersed in silence, the other calling for it. The gallery\u2019s concrete walls evoke an atmosphere of protection and enclosure, while Plensa\u2019s works suggest different ways of relating to this almost cathedral-like setting, welcoming and inviting contemplation.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jaume Plensa is internationally recognized for his large-scale sculptures and public installations, which explore language, identity, and human connection through diverse materials. His works have been exhibited in Spain, France, Japan, England, Korea, Germany, Canada, the United States, Brazil, and other countries. Positioned at the entrance of the gallery, <em>Self Portrait V<\/em> establishes a connection between the interior space of the exhibition and the outside world. In this stainless steel sculpture, a human figure is enveloped by a sphere of letters, creating a metaphysical universe that represents the cosmos and the multiplicity of worlds and words that can emerge from a single sequence of letters.<\/p>\r\n<strong>Back in 2012, Jaume Plensa presented his first solo exhibition in Brazil at Galeria Leme.<\/strong>\r\n\ud83d\udc49<a href=\"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/expo\/jaume-plensa\/\">Click here to learn more about the 2012 exhibition.<\/a>"],"_expo_description":["field_64442aea60f9a"],"expo_catalog_expo_catalog_text":[""],"_expo_catalog_expo_catalog_text":["field_6447bb26033f7"],"expo_catalog_expo_catalog_file":[""],"_expo_catalog_expo_catalog_file":["field_6447bb3f033f8"],"expo_catalog":[""],"_expo_catalog":["field_6447bac1033f6"],"gallery":["a:12:{i:0;s:5:\"66698\";i:1;s:5:\"66681\";i:2;s:5:\"66671\";i:3;s:5:\"66685\";i:4;s:5:\"66683\";i:5;s:5:\"66677\";i:6;s:5:\"66693\";i:7;s:5:\"66691\";i:8;s:5:\"66695\";i:9;s:5:\"66771\";i:10;s:5:\"66767\";i:11;s:5:\"66769\";}"],"_gallery":["field_6436be9722a75"],"videos":[""],"_videos":["field_644491b47cb7e"],"leme_visit":[""],"_leme_visit":["field_6436bb780169e"],"text_expo":[""],"_text_expo":["field_6436bf9def280"],"files":[""],"_files":["field_64453629d51d1"],"leme_begin":["20250401"],"_leme_begin":["field_64442ce3d3a50"],"leme_end":["20250510"],"_leme_end":["field_64442d00d3a51"],"_seopress_social_fb_img":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/jaume-plensa-galeria-leme-2025-webp.webp"],"_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":["66669"],"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":["1200"],"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":["630"],"_seopress_social_twitter_img":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/jaume-plensa-galeria-leme-2025-webp.webp"],"_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":["66669"],"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":["1200"],"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":["630"],"_seopress_redirections_type":["301"],"_seopress_redirections_logged_status":["both"],"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":["jaume plensa,exposi\u00e7\u00e3o jaume plensa,Galeria Leme"],"_wpml_media_duplicate":["1"],"_wpml_media_featured":["1"],"_last_translation_edit_mode":["native-editor"],"_seopress_titles_title":["De mim para n\u00f3s I Jaume Plensa na Galeria Leme"],"_seopress_titles_desc":["Jaume Plensa presents \u201cFrom Me to Us\u201d at Galeria Leme.
