XXIV Bienal de São Paulo: Anthropophagy and Cannibalism Histories

We are pleased to announce the symposium ‘XXIV Bienal de São Paulo: Anthropophagy and Cannibalism Histories’, organised by Escola São Paulo in collaboration with Afterall and Central Saint Martins.

Conceived and organised by Lisette Lagnado, this symposium will serve as working platform for a book by Lagnado dedicated to the 24th Bienal de São Paulo, as part of Afterall’s Exhibition Histories book series. This edition of the Bienal, which took place in 1998 and was curated by Paulo Herkenhoff, has become an international reference in the curatorial field.

The symposium will have contributions from Fabio Cypriano, Pablo Lafuente, Lisette Lagnado, Mirtes Marins de Oliveira, Tania Rivera and Renato Sztutman.
