Galeria Marco Zero
presents solo exhibition by Siron Franco
Award-winning artist
from Goiás has his production revisited in an exhibition curated by Agnaldo
Farias and which brings together around 50 works, with visitors starting on
March 13
Poeticize life, remain
open to the world and feel and reflect your surroundings and what is inside
you. These are principles that guide the production of Siron Franco (1947)
since he began producing art, still in childhood. The Goiano's work, restless
and provocative, never gave in to classifications or currents, expressing
itself through different media and assumptions. To mark the artist's return to
Pernambuco, after almost three decades since his last solo show, Galeria Marco
Zero presents “Siron Franco – From within the Cerrado”, an exhibition that
brings together around 50 works in painting and sculpture and is curated by
Agnaldo Farias. The exhibition will be open to the public from March 13th, with
free entry.
Born in Goiás Velho
(GO), Siron Franco lives and produces in Goiana. The experience in the
Brazilian cerrado, with its exuberance, traditions and contradictions,
permeates his work in multiple ways, whether in the grotesque beings, who mixed
human figures with animals, at the beginning of his career, or in the
denunciation of the unbridled exploitation of nature, as in the “Césio” series,
in reference to the radiological accident that occurred in 1987, in Goiana. It
also manifests itself in more subjective ways, such as its approach to the
indigenous cause, to different cosmologies and its constant exercise of
otherness of view.
“Siron never treated
politics as a minor issue. He always had a vision of Brazil that went beyond
the urban country and, in this sense, he did several works that raised urgent
issues of a social nature, such as the indigenous cause. He is interested in
what happens around him, he is uncomfortable. Nature is very present in his
work, in a very particular way. Since appearing on the artistic scene, he has
managed to impose himself by painting the grotesque, taking risks in different
media, in his own time. He worked with the figurative, the abstract, with
sculpture, video, always in his time, without following trends”, explains
curator Agnaldo Farias.
On display at Galeria
Marco Zero will be around 50 works by Siron Franco, focusing on the production
of oil painting, but also with the presence of the sculptural side of the
artist from Goiás. The exhibition offers a dive into his technique and poetics,
with works created from the beginning of the 1990s until 2023.
For the visual artist,
remaining available for the unpredictable is an essential characteristic of his
work and his personality. According to Siron, being able to reacquaint yourself
with works produced in different periods, especially over the last 30 years, is
an opportunity to discover new meanings, to perceive other layers. A tireless
art worker, he dedicates himself daily to creating several works
simultaneously, in different media.
Regarding the selection
made by Agnaldo for the exhibition at Galeria Marco Zero, mostly paintings, but
also sculptures, he notices, among other themes, the strength of the
unconscious in his production. They are like intimate portraits, but also of
the collective, of experiences he acquired empirically, but also through art,
whether in the literature of Julio Verne and Gabriel García Márquez, in nature,
in the sculptures of Master Vitalino, in the paintings of his friend João
Câmara, or in the life's accidents .

President Biden is delivering his annual State of the Union address tonight.
As we approach one of the most consequential presidential elections in history, all eyes will be on President Biden this evening as he addresses critical issues like →
The economy Health care Abortion access Voting rights ...and so much more
It’s clear that President Biden and Democrats across the country are delivering on our party’s platform to protect our democracy, grow the economy, and expand gun safety measures for the American people. Republicans want Americans to believe the opposite – they’re actively rooting for low ratings around this primetime speech.
But we want to know where local Democrats stand: Will you take this quick poll to share whether or not you’ll be tuning in and what you hope to hear? Here’s the first question to get you started:
Do you plan on watching President Biden’s State of the Union address?
➡️ State legislatures are the building blocks of our democracy. State legislators pass the policies that have the most impact on our day-to-day lives, from abortion access to voting rights to public education.
By supporting our work, you are supporting state Democrats who will fight to BLOCK the GOP’s dangerous agenda and PROTECT your fundamental freedoms.
➡️ The DLCC is the only party organization dedicated to electing Democrats to statehouses nationwide. We’re working around the clock to build power in our key target states by expanding our majorities, flipping key chambers, and chipping away at GOP supermajorities. But we rely on grassroots donations from Democrats like you to put our strategy into action.
➡️ State Dems are facing ultra-competitive special elections right now, with nearly two dozen already on the books. These races are critical opportunities to build Democratic power in the states – your investment today could be the difference between victory and defeat.
With right-wing extremists working to outlaw reproductive freedom, attack the LGBTQ+ community, and sabotage ballot access, our democracy is on the line. The fight for our future is happening in the states, and it’s happening now.We can’t win without you. Will you step up today?
If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately.
If you have been waiting for the perfect time to make a donation to Ruben Gallego's campaign for Senate, we are here to tell you TODAY is the day.
Earlier this week, Kyrsten Sinema declared she was NOT going to run for re-election.
That means it's officially Ruben vs. Kari Lake.
And that's why we're asking you to donate $5 to our campaign today.
$5 to keep Kari Lake out of the Senate.
$5 to elect Ruben Gallego, who will vote to bypass the filibuster to protect abortion access, expand voting rights, and more.
$5 because Ruben Gallego can't win this race without you.
We know $5 may not feel like it can win this race alone. But by the time you read this, lots and lots of people who want to keep Kari Lake out of the Senate will have already donated $5 to Ruben today.
If you purchase this information you are agreeing to use it for yourself only & under no circumstances share with anyone. Thank-you for your understanding
Happy Punting!

PERSONALITE 2023
CELEBRATES NATIONAL CINEMA
The Personalite 2023
Award was more than a simple award, it was a moment of recognition and
appreciation for the tireless work of professionals who stood out during the
year. Carlos Sabugo is an example of the transformative power of art and
culture, and his contribution to the enrichment of the Brazilian
cinematographic scene is undeniable. Over the years, Sabugo has worked as a
director, producer, actor, mime clown, screenwriter, special effects director,
and is the founder of the first Latin American Stunt Academy in Brazil (Aguias
de Fogo).
It is currently
presenting a film festival “A Semana do Cinema Brasileiro por Carlos Sabugo”,
in the states of Goiás, Paraná, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The festival will
showcase the productions in which the filmmaker has worked throughout his 60-year
career.
In the year 2024, he is
engaged in the production of the feature film O Carandiru – a Nova Versão, a
production that will tell the true story of the most famous prison in Brazil.
The tribute to the
filmmaker served as an inspiration for new talents and as an incentive for us
to continue celebrating and recognizing the great names of our culture.
Congratulations to Carlos Sabugo and all the winners of the Personalite 2023
Award. May his work continue to move and impact future generations.

Did you see Quentin’s last message? 2024 is shaping up to be one of the most important election years of our lifetime, and our endorsed Black candidates are counting on us to help them beat MAGA Republicans at the polls come November.
It’s Quentin James, co-founder of The Collective PAC.
I’ll be honest — we’re not where we need to be. Our books for the month of February close Thursday at midnight, and right now, we are only 27% of the way to our $50,000 goal.
The Collective PAC has continued to support and fund Black candidates since 2016, all while engaging and mobilizing Black voters.
In the last three years, thanks to contributions from supporters like you, we’re registered more than 200,000, provided more than 100,000 rides to and from the polls, and made nearly5 million voter contact attempts.
But that’s not all — we also endorsed and financially supported400Black candidates we’ve helped elect to local, state, and federal offices.
2024 is shaping up to be one of our most important election years to date, and our endorsed Black candidates need our support now more than ever. That’s why we’re asking you.
The Collective PAC is strategically focused on creating a truly equitable democracy where our nation’s local, state and federal governments have diverse and talented elected leadership and Black people are fully represented in positions of power to create the policies necessary to progress our communities forward. Since our inception in 2016, we have helped 110 candidates win general elections at the local, state and federal levels. We strive to support the next wave of progressive and unapologetic Black candidates who will usher in a sea of change in our political system while helping America fulfill its promise of democracy by creating a government that will truly be for the people and of the people.
You should have received this already, but I really wanted to make sure you see it.
Today, we commemorate the 33rd anniversary of the end of Operation Desert Storm. This anniversary hits particularly close to home at a time when U.S. troops in the Middle East are being killed and wounded in attacks from Iran-backed militia groups.
From: troop-support@uso.org Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2024 Subject: We were there for service members during Desert Storm. We’re there for them today.
Tomorrow marks 33 years since the end of Operation Desert Storm — a major U.S. military victory that went hand in hand with the USO successfully expanding and adapting its mission to support our troops.
On Feb. 28, 1991, U.S. and allied ground forces decisively defeated the fourth largest army in the world and liberated Kuwait.
The tens of thousands of troops called to serve during this time relied on support from the USO — and we went where no other nonprofit did to be there for them. We brought morale-boosting entertainment and opened three new USO Centers in Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia to make sure our troops had everything they needed as they sacrificed so much for our freedoms.
And our work across this region is just as critical in 2024 as it was in 1991. Today, as our troops are being killed and wounded in attacks by Iran-backed militias across the Middle East, the USO continues to work tirelessly to provide them with critical supplies and support in their time of need — all thanks to the generosity of military supporters like you.
SO many top Democrats emailed you asking you to help elect state Democrats, but we don’t see your name on our February donor list. Does this seem right to you?
We wouldn’t keep emailing you if it wasn’t important. But you're a key part of our plan to win and build Democratic power across the country. And with important special elections over the next few months, we can’t afford to fall short of our February goal.
Your contribution is an investment in electing state Democrats who will protect our fundamental rights and fight for progress in legislatures nationwide. So what do you say? Will you join our movement today?
