Social Fabric: Art and Activism in Contemporary Brazil brings
together the work of ten artists who reflect upon the long-standing
histories of oppressive power structures in the territory now known
as Brazil. Blurring the line between art and activism and spanning
installation, painting, performance, photography, sculpture, and
video, these artists contribute to local and global conversations
about the state of democracy, racial injustice, and the violence
inflicted by the nation-state. This first English-language,
book-length study of contemporary Brazilian art in relationship to
activism assembles artist-authored texts, interviews, essays, and a
conceptual mapping of Brazilian history to illuminate the function
of art as a platform for critical engagement with the historical,
political, and cultural configurations of a particular place. By
refusing to remain neutral, these artists create spaces of vibrant
and vital community and self-construction to explore how healing
and justice may be possible, especially in the Black, LGBTQIA+, and
Indigenous communities to which many of them belong.
