Super Colina

Galeria LOGO, Rua Artur de Azevedo

The curator Carlos Issa has built the exhibition on three main levels: represent the future; dialogue with the future; reprogram the future. Issa promotes a multi-level dialogue, open and independent, allowing freedom for artists to follow the complete reconstruction of a idealized future.

Super Colina exhibits works of different media, such as drawings, paintings, sculptures, collages, videos and installations exploring universal languages ​​and the formal rigor of the composition. It is an exhibition driven by visual images that attempt to explain the questions about future uncertainties. What future awaits us? How to overcome the failures of those who in the past has planned our present?

For Issa, belongs to the creator spirits the reflection that leads to a future of utopian ideals. Super Colina symbolizes an idealized place of timeless images, where it is possible to overcome the darkness and the suffocation of our time which surround the future.

In Ilha B, the artist and architect Bruna Canepa offers a contemplative stronghold in which humans are isolated. The work is divided into two parts: a collage with ink drawing and a plastic cube, which hosted a small model, seen through a hole located on one side of the object. In both media, Ilha B depicts a mountainous island, rugged and inhospitable, on top of which a man must face his own existence, which in turn confronts him and demands answers.
It is a sad but liberating vision, Canepa sees in the solitude and reflection a more humane future; however, the escape from the island is a possibility, and it materializes in a small ship on the horizon and symbolizes the escape of himself or of the future that awaits us.

In Como Fazer Uma Cápsula do Tempo, Guilherme Falcão plans to build, as suggested by the title of the work, an object-vehicle survives the ravages of time and can be discovered in the future. The job requires an active engagement of the visitors, which should help with the material to be preserved. During the period of the exhibition, Hawk receives donations of items or personal messages to future generations that visitors should preserve. In exchange for the contribution, the artist will offer a small booklet which describes and illustrates the different concepts of the time capsule.

The drawing in graphite on paper by Gustavo Eandi analyzes the question of the future through the representation of speed and movement. In the work, are represented two horses, guided by their riders, fast-moving, the four protagonists are rushing towards destiny symbolized by the arrival of the future. Eandi suggests an agile and competitive future in which men compete head to head to win.
