Exposição Figurative Expressions  No dia 29 de Março (quarta-feira) Saphira & Ventura Gallery apresenta a exposição FIGURATIVE EXPRESSIONS, uma coletiva com trabalhos de fotografias e pinturas de artistas representados pela NEW YORK CONTEMPORARY ART SOCIETY e SOCIEDADE INTERNACIONAL DE ARTE & GASTRONOMIA SÃO PAULO em parceria com a galeria de ART & ART de Brasília. Nesta exposição, quatro artistas com diferentes linguagens correlacionam um delineador comum dentre as expressões figurativas em seus trabalhos e contam com a parceria da ART & ART Gallery de Brasília e Saphira & Ventura Gallery New York /São Paulo. Através da pintura, Luiz Costa apresenta um belo diálogo entre a riqueza das cores e a geometria de suas figuras. Paulo Ribeiro transita em diferentes mundos e linguagens, apresentando pinturas e foto-pinturas, com imagens que, ao mesmo tempo, transmitem força em sua composição e uma delicada leveza em seu aspecto cromático. Sonnia Guerra apresenta nesta mostra fotografias que exprimem delicadeza sutil, em cada gesto/movimento de luz colorida registrada pela sensivel percepção da artista.  A designer e artista Chris Barreto, brasileira, residente em NY, com sua postura irreverente, traz cores e harmonia em composições de intensidade e lança em São Paulo parte de sua coleção de Fashion e Home decor. Figurative Expressions é uma mostra arrojada onde o individual torna-se coletivo. Cores e vibrações pulsam dentro de cada ser.

The White House just requested $3 billion from Congress to implement a discriminatory immigration agenda. We need to make sure they don't get it. What they've asked for is $3 billion in taxpayer money -- yours and mine -- so they can find and deport people with no criminal record, ripping families apart; deny people access to the country they call home; and withhold people's opportunity for a better life, just because of where they come from and how they pray. None of this is OK. And while they've used executive actions that run counter to our country's core values of diversity, inclusion, and fairness, they can't do nearly as much damage without more money from Congress. This is the first time Congress will consider whether or not to use our taxpayer dollars to fund the administration's destructive, divisive, and anti-immigrant agenda. If you agree that Congress should say no to this funding, add your name now. Without the funding they've requested, this new administration cannot fully implement its agenda -- an agenda that includes building a massive border wall, new detention centers, and hiring thousands of additional agents for a deportation force. This is our elected representatives' chance to say no to this administration's reckless actions targeting immigrant communities in America -- Congress should refuse to go along with these harmful policies and reject this request for funding. And it's up to us to make sure they do. Speak up now.
