BODY INSIDE OUT - FRANCIS BACON, THE BEAUTY OF MEAT
A man is waiting. In elegant clothes, the figure is placed in the center of what looks like a hotel bar. He plays the lead role on a sort of stage, an interior that is something of a cage, something of a scenic locus, as if a possible flirtation or a desired encounter would provide some catalysis of emergence, a quick enjoyment, an intense release, however short and finite, perhaps dismantling a routine of limits. Man in Blue (1954) works as a synthesis of the not so extensive but very significant gathering of the celebrated Francis Bacon (1909-1992) in A Beleza da Carne (The Beauty of Meat), at Masp (São Paulo Museum of Art). The exhibition is curated by Adriano Pedrosa, artistic director of the institution and curator of the current edition of the Venice Biennale, the 60th, on show until November in the Italian city, and co-curated by Laura Cosendey.
