SALUDOS AMIGOSLatin American artists in London
a group exhibition curated by Robson Cezar and Emma Russell
Thursday June 4th 2009
In the 1940s Walt Disney travelled to Rio to make SALUDOS AMIGOS a pop portrait of Latin America, now Brazilian artist Robson Cezar is gathering together South American artists here in London to create a new SALUDOS AMIGOS as a contemporary representation of the heterogeneous cultures that comprise the continent today.
With Brazil one of the world’s rising economies and with east London as a cultural magnet for Latin American artists ever since Helio Oiticica staged TROPICALIA at the Whitechapel in 1967, the time is ripe to present a selection of the lively work being created by these individuals here and now.
Robson is currently Sculpture Fellow at Chelsea College of Art where he has been exploring the development of the “NEW TROPICALIA”. He and Emma Russell were responsible for both the recent CONDENSATION exhibitions that attracted capacity attendances at the Decima and Bodhi Galleries and were widely publicised.
