Oh, I Love Brazilian Women!
Curated by Luiza Testa
On view at 291 Church street from January 15 – March 12
Opening day, Saturday, January 15, 11am – 6pm
apexart.org/testa.php
Oh, I Love Brazilian Women! presents works by twelve artists who critique this image of eroticized beauty and its dangerous outcomes. The exhibition examines the colonial and biological origins of harmful stereotypes that disproportionately affect Black and Indigenous women, and how such tropes are reinforced through Brazil’s national narrative of “racial democratization.”
