Exhibition Overview
Lygia Pape: A Multitude of Forms is the first monographic exhibition in the United States devoted to Brazilian artist Lygia Pape (1927–2004). A critical figure in the development of Brazilian modern art, Pape combined geometric abstraction with notions of body, time, and space in unique ways that radically transformed the nature of the art object in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Covering a prolific, unclassifiable career that spanned five decades, this exhibition will examine Pape's extraordinarily rich oeuvre as manifest across varied media—from sculpture, prints, and painting to installation, photography, performance, and film.

Free admission. Prior registration is required.
Join coeditors Erica Roberts and Facundo de Zuviría, along with curator Gabriela Rangel, for a conversation on the book series Ciudades de América (R&Z Editores), moderated by independent editor Donna Wingate. The series consists of four volumes dedicated to Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Cartagena de Indias, and Rio de Janeiro. Each book features photographs by de Zuviría that focus on the city landscapes, interior spaces, and textures and colors. Interspersed with the images are texts by such recognized writers as Gabriel García Márquez, Eduardo Galeano, Jorge Luis Borges, Julio Cortázar, and Vinicius de Moraes, among others. Presenting a local perspective rather a tourist’s viewpoint, Ciudades de América provides an intimate view of these emblematic Latin American cities.
