Photocubism at Nara Roesler Gallery, São Paulo, Brazil, November 10 – December 23, 2021

Nara Roesler São Paulo presents Photocubism, a solo show by Vik Muniz, opening on November 10. Based on extensive research on classic works by Cubist masters, such as Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and Juan Gris, Muniz’s new series of works reveals how aspects related to memory, ambiguities in image representation, and a rich interconnection between different means of expression constitute the basis of his production. Following that, on December 8, the book Epistemas will be launched. The publication focuses on the artist’s recent production, shedding light on connections between different moments of his trajectory. Richly illustrated and featuring texts by Vik Muniz himself, the critic Luísa Duarte, and the English scientist and writer Phillip Ball, the book addresses critical aspects of the conceptual and formal research by Muniz, who has been investigating contradictions between visual perception and the physical world for almost four decades. Edited by Nara Roesler Books andsponsored by Turim, the publication is part of the series “Recortes,” which focuses on specific aspects of an artist’s work or career.
