The show Raio que o Parta, shown between February and August 2022 at Sesc 24 de Maio, in downtown São Paulo, reflects on the notion of "modern art" in Brazil beyond the 1920s and on the protagonism often attributed by art history to São Paulo and to artists from the Southeast axis. Curated by Aldrin Figueiredo, Clarissa Diniz, Divino Sobral, Marcelo Campos, Paula Ramos, and Raphael Fonseca and consulting by Fernanda Pitta, the exhibition seeks to rethink this centrality, in the year in which the 100th anniversary of the Modern Art Week - held in Theatro Municipal de São Paulo in 1922, a few meters from the 24th of May - through the exhibition of more than 600 works by artists from all regions of the national territory.
