Arte em Campo

Curated by Catarina Duncan and titled Na Rua, no Meio do Redemoinho, the Arte em Campo Sector brought together approximately 30 works from 13 galleries participating in the fair with different dimensions and medias, including sculptures, installations, photographs and flags, displayed on the facade of the Pacaembu Complex, on the roundabout and on the side of Praça Charles Miller. The title, inspired by an excerpt from Grande Sertão: Veredas by Guimarães Rosa, evokes the idea of movement, transition and transformation.

About the 1st edition

In its 1st edition, ArPa was curated by Ana Beatriz Almeida (Setor Uni), Carollina Lauriano (Programa Prisma), Catarina Duncan (Setor Arte em Campo)
and José Esparza Chong Cuy (Satélite Sector). The fair's debut had around 10,000 visitors and brought together 57 Brazilian and international galleries with new projects designed for the event. The Fair also shared the Pavilion with MADE, the most prestigious design fair in the country, established in 2012. The partnership enabled expansion and synergy between art and design audiences.

In search of a decentralized view and with the aim of bringing together different approaches and perspectives on contemporary art, ArPa invited four curators responsible for the event's different sectors and programs. The Main, UNI and Satélite sectors took place in the Pavilion; Arte em Campo, with free entry, was located in Praça Charles Miller, aiming to encourage public formation through educational and communication programs; Finally, the Prisma program was created as a way to expand the limits of the Fair and spread knowledge to other spaces and institutions in the city through visits to exhibitions, artists' studios, private collections, among others.

Main Sector

The Main Sector brought together many of the most relevant art galleries in the country, invited to come up with special projects for the occasion. In the context of the first edition of the Fair in 2022, the ArPa team prioritized the contemplative experience, creating a more intimate atmosphere with the visiting public – which brought together artists, curators, gallerists, collectors and art lovers. Therefore, two sizes of exhibition spaces were available in the sector, in which galleries could exhibit up to three artists from their program.

UNI Sector

Setor UNI, dedicated to presenting solo exhibitions by contemporary artists, aligns its selection with the curatorial axis of each edition of ArPa. In 2022, curated by Ana Beatriz Almeida and in line with the proposal of the first edition of the Fair – which sought decentralized perspectives and the bringing together of different artistic approaches –, the sector invited 11 emerging galleries to exhibit works by artists who, in the words from the curator, “help us rethink the world”. The selection reflects the need for new perspectives after the pandemic, which highlighted the fragility of existing structures and the importance of building new collections.
