ARTE+CARE #3 – FELIPE SEIXAS OPENS THIRD CYCLE OF THE PROGRAM WITH A NEW SERIES OF WORKS

Kicking off cycle #3 of our ARTE+CARE program, is artist Felipe Seixas, who presents a new series of works, indicating a development of his research on the materiality of the concrete in combination with other elements.

Part of the sales of these works will benefit another relevant initiative of public interest in the fields of culture, health and primary care. For this third cycle, we will support Maré says NO to the Coronavirus, a campaign led by NGO Redes da Maré, aimed at the population living in the 16 communities in Maré, Rio de Janeiro, and which seeks to face the humanitarian crisis caused by the pandemic. The campaign’s objective is to achieve donations of material items and financial resources for the realization of the following proposals: food security; assistance to the homeless population; provision of income for women; health care and prevention; production and dissemination of secure information and content; support for local artists and cultural groups.

On the following weeks, joining cycle #3, artists Rafael Pagatini, Zé Carlos Garcia and Ismael Monticelli will participate bringing new works. Stay tuned on our online channels!

ARTE+CARE is a program to support our artists and to help people and organizations that aid, care, and protect those who are most affected during these difficult times: cultural workers facing economic strain, children and vulnerable communities. Series of unpublished works at affordable prices (ranging from USD 250 to USD 900 each) were developed exclusively by our represented artists for the program, and each month, part of the sales will be donated to a different initiative.
