Galeria Vermelho and Galeria Leme present two individual, simultaneous and complementary exhibitions by M\u00f4nica Nador + JAMAC. Opening on the 18th of March at Leme and the 23rd at Vermelho, these exhibitions will show works from the 1980s until today.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
O pol\u00edtico na arte, de novo [Politics in the arts, again] and O espiritual na arte, de novo [Spiritual in the arts, again] take place in Vermelho and Leme, respectively. Both exhibitions will occupy the spaces designed by the architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha exploring spatially the installation of the works.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The exhibitions will bring seminal works of M\u00f4nica Nador\u2019s trajectory, such as the large- cale paintings\u00a0Mam\u00e3e Natureza [Pachamama]\u00a0<\/em>(1990),\u00a0Um bom e velho monocrom\u00e1tico [A good old monochromatic]\u00a0<\/em>(1990) and\u00a0FRUA [ENJOY]\u00a0<\/em>(1991), as well as recent works from the series Pano Parede [Fabric wall], elaborated together with JAMAC. Series of etchings and screen printings will contrast the scale of other works to show distinct strategies to systematically fill the space \u2013 trademark of Nador\u2019s works.<\/p>"],"_content_0_texto":["field_6448479f05101"],"content_1_imagem":["44562"],"_content_1_imagem":["field_644847c605104"],"content_2_obra":["a:1:{i:0;s:5:\"44622\";}"],"_content_2_obra":["field_6448473c050fe"],"content_3_obra":["a:4:{i:0;s:5:\"44623\";i:1;s:5:\"44624\";i:2;s:5:\"44626\";i:3;s:5:\"44625\";}"],"_content_3_obra":["field_64486178449f3"],"content_4_imagem":["44564"],"_content_4_imagem":["field_644847c605104"],"content_5_obra":["a:2:{i:0;s:5:\"44627\";i:1;s:5:\"44628\";}"],"_content_5_obra":["field_64486178449f3"],"content_6_obra":["a:1:{i:0;s:5:\"44629\";}"],"_content_6_obra":["field_6448473c050fe"],"content_7_obra":["a:3:{i:0;s:5:\"44630\";i:1;s:5:\"44631\";i:2;s:5:\"44632\";}"],"_content_7_obra":["field_64486180449f5"],"content_8_imagem":["44566"],"_content_8_imagem":["field_644847c605104"],"content_9_obra":["a:11:{i:0;s:5:\"44633\";i:1;s:5:\"44634\";i:2;s:5:\"44635\";i:3;s:5:\"44636\";i:4;s:5:\"44637\";i:5;s:5:\"44638\";i:6;s:5:\"44639\";i:7;s:5:\"44640\";i:8;s:5:\"44641\";i:9;s:5:\"44642\";i:10;s:5:\"44643\";}"],"_content_9_obra":["field_64486180449f5"],"content_10_imagem":["44568"],"_content_10_imagem":["field_644847c605104"],"content_11_obra":["a:3:{i:0;s:5:\"44644\";i:1;s:5:\"44645\";i:2;s:5:\"44646\";}"],"_content_11_obra":["field_64486180449f5"],"content_12_obra":["a:4:{i:0;s:5:\"44647\";i:1;s:5:\"44648\";i:2;s:5:\"44649\";i:3;s:5:\"44650\";}"],"_content_12_obra":["field_64486178449f3"],"content_13_texto":["Visit the exhibition Politics in the arts, again<\/a><\/em>, that took place at Galeria Vermelho until April 29th, 2023.\r\n\r\nAbout theex<\/strong>\r\n\r\nartist<\/strong>\r\n eBy the end of the 1980s, Nador produced a series of monochromatic paintings, which lived in confrontation with adornment, escaping the crisis of minimalist artists who thought they were reaching a kind of end or peak in artistic production. Nador\u2019s monochromes did not end a process, but rather freed it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n In the early 1990s, monochrome adornments gave way to the use of Islamic motifs, which stylize natural elements such as flowers and leaves, positioning them between figuration and abstraction. These motifs began to be used by Nador in works that are close to all-over paintings, in which the treatment given to the canvas is relatively uniform in color or pattern. Nador\u2019s production evidences a manual and rigorous repetition that brings her paintings closer to patterns of industrially printed fabrics.<\/p>\r\n\r\n At the 21st S\u00e3o Paulo Biennial (1991), Nador exhibited a set of large paintings made with repetitious manual patterns overlaid with verbs in the imperative. Nador\u00b4s choice of words, however, are invitations to physical and mental well-being. The confusion between order and enjoyment of the imperatives FRUA [ENJOY], VOE [FLY], and ENTRE [COME IN] operates on the same border as in Nador\u2019s paintings, which use strategies from North-American abstract expressionism \u2013 based on the emotional intensity of German expressionism and the antifigurative movement of the European abstract school- and the twists and juxtapositions of conceptualism in the 1960s. Even so, this production, even if it was critical of the masculine form and system of art, reaffirmed the two-dimensional space of the canvas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n In 1996, M\u00f4nica Nador is invited by curator Tadeu Chiarelli to participate in the Wall Project of MAM-SP (Museum of Modern Art in S\u00e3o Paulo). Nador created in this space the mural Parede para Nelson Leirner [Wall for Nelson Leiner], a work which propelled her to occupy urban spaces with her research, establishing the project Paredes Pinturas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Paredes Pinturas were made on homes and shops in the outskirts of the city of S\u00e3o Paulo. From this approximation with a marginalized community, Monica Nador began her process of developing a collective project at the Jardim Miriam, in the Southern part of the city.<\/p>\r\n\r\n The\u00a0Jardim Miriam Arte Clube (Jardim Miriam Art Club) \u2013 JAMAC<\/strong>\u00a0starts with the organization of workshops to teach stenciling techniques to the community, as a way to give tools to its inhabitants, which can, from this experience, apply this technique in commercial works, contributing to the autonomy of its citizens.<\/p>\r\n\r\n M\u00f4nica Nador + JAMAC started to participate in several important shows around the world, such as the 27th S\u00e3o Paulo Biennial (2006), the Lubumbashi Biennial in Congo (2015), the Museum of Antioquia in Medell\u00edn (2016), the 21st Videobrasil Sesc Biennial (2019), and the 1dt OsloBiennalen (2020).<\/p>\r\n\r\n In each participation in exhibitions, M\u00f4nica Nador + JAMAC organize workshops with local groups to create symbolic drawings for each group and context. These drawings are, then, reproduced in stencils and applied as patterns in paintings showed in the exhibitions. These stencils then become part of the visual vocabulary of JAMAC, which rearticulates its images, creating new patterns and paintings with each rendition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n The production of JAMAC\u2019s paintings, based on stencils, affirms the collectivity and authorship of its processes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n The critic and curator Thais Rivitti wrote in the catalogue of the 2010 exhibition M\u00f4nica Nador and JAMAC, at the Pinacoteca Station: \u201cThe permanence of Paredes Pinturas at JAMAC allowed the mural painting technique to be widely disseminated throughout the community: countless young people and adults passed through Nador\u2019s workshops. Today, many of them are able to organize workshops themselves to train other interested parties. JAMAC is now a place open to discussions and practices that go beyond Paredes Pinturas\u201d. Nador took not only an experience to the Jardim Miriam, but generator a transformation in their reality.<\/p>\r\n"],"_content_13_texto":["field_6448479f05101"],"content_14_imagem":["44570"],"_content_14_imagem":["field_644847c605104"],"content_15_obra":["a:25:{i:0;s:5:\"44667\";i:1;s:5:\"44666\";i:2;s:5:\"44665\";i:3;s:5:\"44668\";i:4;s:5:\"44661\";i:5;s:5:\"44664\";i:6;s:5:\"44651\";i:7;s:5:\"44659\";i:8;s:5:\"44658\";i:9;s:5:\"44663\";i:10;s:5:\"44662\";i:11;s:5:\"44657\";i:12;s:5:\"44660\";i:13;s:5:\"44656\";i:14;s:5:\"44655\";i:15;s:5:\"44654\";i:16;s:5:\"44653\";i:17;s:5:\"44652\";i:18;s:5:\"44669\";i:19;s:5:\"44670\";i:20;s:5:\"44671\";i:21;s:5:\"44672\";i:22;s:5:\"44673\";i:23;s:5:\"44674\";i:24;s:5:\"44675\";}"],"_content_15_obra":["field_64486180449f5"],"_uag_css_file_name":["uag-css-44585.css"],"_seopress_search_console_analysis_clicks":["2"],"_seopress_search_console_analysis_ctr":["0.026315789473684"],"_seopress_search_console_analysis_impressions":["76"],"_seopress_search_console_analysis_position":["6.3552631578947"],"_uag_page_assets":["a:9:{s:3:\"css\";s:263:\".uag-blocks-common-selector{z-index:var(--z-index-desktop) !important}@media (max-width: 976px){.uag-blocks-common-selector{z-index:var(--z-index-tablet) !important}}@media (max-width: 767px){.uag-blocks-common-selector{z-index:var(--z-index-mobile) !important}}\n\";s:2:\"js\";s:0:\"\";s:18:\"current_block_list\";a:7:{i:0;s:11:\"core\/search\";i:1;s:10:\"core\/group\";i:2;s:12:\"core\/heading\";i:3;s:17:\"core\/latest-posts\";i:4;s:20:\"core\/latest-comments\";i:5;s:13:\"core\/archives\";i:6;s:15:\"core\/categories\";}s:8:\"uag_flag\";b:0;s:11:\"uag_version\";s:10:\"1776363335\";s:6:\"gfonts\";a:0:{}s:10:\"gfonts_url\";s:0:\"\";s:12:\"gfonts_files\";a:0:{}s:14:\"uag_faq_layout\";b:0;}"]},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy.jpg",2346,1564,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy-768x512.jpg",640,427,true],"large":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy-1024x683.jpg",640,427,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy-1536x1024.jpg",1536,1024,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/mg_2241-copy-2048x1365.jpg",2048,1365,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Cheyenne","author_link":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/author\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/viewing_room\/44585","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/viewing_room"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/viewing_room"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/viewing_room\/44585\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/galerialeme.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44585"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
