Notes related to Amazonia

Por María Galarza

The Brazilian city of Belém has the particularity of being located in an estuary: the point where the Amazonian rivers open into the Atlantic. It is there, in a setting traversed by currents of water and of history, that the Bienal das Amazônias takes place, an event that explores the connections between territory, history, and climate, and the ways in which art can become a space to think through those tensions.

Americas Society presents Amazonia Açu, an exhibition that explores the cultural, historical, and spiritual diversity of the Pan-Amazon region through contemporary and Indigenous perspectives.
