Casa da Cultura Paraty inaugurates photo exhibition "dish of the day" in 9 de Mayo

Exhibition, based on the book the society of the spectacle, proposes a reflection on the ' merchandise ' generation

Based on the book "the society of the spectacle", by Guy Debord, the new exhibition of the Casa da Cultura Paraty, "Dish of the day", seeks to promote reflection on the "generation merchandise", concept that makes the counterpoint of "consumer generation". The show inaugurates the day 9 de Mayo, Saturday, and brings black and white photographs of the artist of Paraty people Breeze de Souza, I've exhibited at Casa da Cultura Chico Science, in São Paulo.

From the idea that, today, relations are permeated by ideas of product, market and consumption, Breeze proposes that the man himself turned into merchandise. To represent this concept, the show brings photographic images of people exposed as dishes in a restaurant, offering her figure for a specious and unfair market – working, aesthetic or social – and showing off the trial and referred to the public. The signs that accompany the characters, with the description of the ' menu ', were drawn up by his own voluntary models.

We seek to offer the of Paraty people, in particular, and the general public that visits us, an updated production of Brazilian contemporary art in all its forms ", emphasizes Gabriela Gibrail, Superintendent of Casa da Cultura Paraty.
