Superfície is pleased to announce the opening of its second location in São Paulo on August 29th. As part of a special program to celebrate its tenth anniversary, the gallery will inaugurate a new space in Jardins, in house 4 of Flávio de Carvalho’s Vila Modernista. With a renovation that takes up the original aspects of the project, the Superfície Vila Modernista will offer a special exhibition program in parallel with its original headquarters on Oscar Freire Street. In addition, the space will house the Superfície Archive – a non-commercial initiative aimed at researching and digitizing documents related to conceptual and avant-garde art, with a focus on the 1970s – and Superfície Publications – the gallery’s publishing house, which focuses on unpublished projects, as well as printing artists’ books and reissuing historical materials.

JORNAIS ETC. inaugurates the new space and reiterates Superfície’s work of developing and contributing to the trajectory of contemporary artists, while also looking at historical productions, especially avant-garde ones with an experimental appeal. With a strong political and conceptual slant, the group exhibition brings together 21 artists, including established names – such as Antonio Manuel, Amelia Toledo, Cildo Meireles, Anna Bella Geiger and Paulo Bruscky – and emerging artists who have stood out since the 2000s – such as Cinthia Marcelle, Renata Lucas, André Komatsu, Anna Costa e Silva, Vitor Cesar, Marcelo Cidade – who use the newspaper as an investigative element in their work.
