Activities: Into the Collection: Right to Opacity and Queer Visibility, with Amara Moira and Thierry Freitas

This special visit explores works from the 'Pinacoteca: Acervo' exhibition, fostering debates on gender, sexuality, performativity, and memory, connecting art with contemporary LGBTQIAP+ discussions. Led by museum curator Thierry Freitas and writer/activist Amara Moira, the event offers dissident and intersectional perspectives on the collection. It reflects on the presence, erasure, and representation of queer bodies and subjectivities in Brazilian art history, drawing on Édouard Glissant's concept of the 'right to opacity.' The activity is free on Saturdays and recommended for ages 12 and up.
