About

In the year of the bicentenary of Brazil's independence, in 2022; the College of Arts held three important commemorative events, with the participation of Brazilian visual artists:  The Viva Brasil exhibition, the Terra em Transe website and the video art exhibition "O tempo não para". The debate will revolve around these initiatives of the College, as an offshoot of a work that has been developed for years in the doctorate of contemporary visual arts, which focuses on the valorization of research developed by Brazilian students. During the lecture, the website "Terra em Transe" will be launched, which already counts with the participation of 21 Brazilian contemporary visual artists, with consolidated careers.
