14- In your opinion what is the future of Brazilian art and its artists? (in the general context) and why so many artists are giving preference to show their work in international exhibitions despite high costs?
Despite the devaluation of Brazilian culture, I believe in the potential and expansion of the art produced in the last decades.
In my point of view, the vast majority of the arts are exhibited abroad due to an appreciation that is not given nationwide.
My biggest plan is to make Brazilian art more visible in the future and reach all social classes.
