coleção moraes-barbosaorganizado com Pontogor e Joaquim Pedro
A exposição apresenta ao público obras da artista norte-americana Louise Lawler e do brasileiro Mauro Restiffe. Este recorte está disposto no espaço da coleção moraes-barbosa, abrindo diálogos e caminhos para reflexão sobre dois eixos principais: a fotografia como meio, começo e fim – ou uma ideia de captura e/ou criação de imagens – e o registro de obras de outros artistas, caracterizando a apropriação.
Esses dois eixos vêm à tona desde o título da exposição, que funde os nomes de duas obras: Photograph of Photograph of Photographs of Photographs [Fotografia de fotografia de fotografias de fotografias] (2017), de Mauro Restiffe, e She Wanted to Know More About This Statue [Ela queria saber mais sobre esta estátua] (1997/1998), de Louise Lawler. Na segunda obra, a palavra statue foi suprimida, realçando a dúvida sobre o motivo pelo qual “é preciso saber mais…”
Nesse contexto, os visitantes terão a oportunidade de ver, através dos obturadores e lentes de Louise e Mauro, imagens de obras de Mira Schendel, Eva Hesse, Malevich, Fernanda Gomes, entre outras. As obras estão dispostas em formatos fotográficos pequenos e médios, com intervenções manuais e digitais, duas instalações (traçadas) de Lawler.
A coleção moraes-barbosa ocupa seu espaço para que as “lacunas” entre as imagens (nas imagens) abram possibilidades de questionamentos a partir de novos olhares, do já observado e re-observado por esses dois artistas com perspectivas e carreiras distintas, que se encontram em diálogo nesta exposição.

This exhibition presents to the public works by the North-American artist Louise Lawler and Brazilian photographer Mauro Restiffe. This selection is displayed in the space of the moraes-barbosa collection, opening dialogues and paths for reflection on two main axes: photography as a medium, beginning and end – or an idea of capturing and/or creating images – and also the recording of works by other artists, characterizing appropriation.
These two axes come to the fore from the exhibition's title, which merges the names of two works: Photograph of Photograph of Photographs of Photographs (2017), by Mauro Restiffe, and She Wanted to Know More About This Statue (1997/1998), by Louise Lawler. In the second work title, the word "Statue" was suppressed, highlighting the doubt about why "it is necessary to know more..."
In this context, visitors will have the opportunity to see through the shutters and lenses of Louise and Mauro, images of works by Mira Schendel, Eva Hesse, Malevich, Fernanda Gomes, among others. The works are displayed in small and medium photographic formats, with manual and digital interventions, as well as two (traced) installations by Lawler.
The moraes-barbosa collection occupies its space so that the "gaps" between the images (within the images) are open possibilities for questioning new perspectives, from what has already been observed and re-observed by these two artists with distinct perspectives and careers, who meet in dialogue in this exhibition.
