ABERTO is a platform for traveling exhibitions, held in unusual spaces – outside the traditional circuit of museums and galleries – that are open to the public during the entire event period.

Filipe Almeida

The initiative works as a channel for the appreciation of the link between art, architecture and design, generating a dialogue between brazilian and international art in carefully selected spaces.

Each edition has a specific curatorial approach, defined collaboratively by a multidisciplinary artistic committee, formed by independent curators, collectors and gallery owners.

Domschke House

Alfred Domschke was an engineer who had studied under Artigas at the Engineering College at the University of São Paulo, where he would later teach.

In the 1950s, the Domschkes were Artiga's neighbours in Campo Belo, where they intended to build a new house in a plot nearby the Artigas'. But they ended up acquiring some land in Alto da Boa Vista, where they finally built the Artigas project in 1973. The house has a facade that is perpendicular to the street, and the different storeys are connected by ramps. The dining room, which works as the epicentre of the house, is the project's most distinctive feature.

The house has been kept in a perfect state of conservation by the family.

Aberto/01

Aberto/01

November 5th to December 4th, 2022

ABERTO’s first edition took place in the only residencial project designed by Oscar Niemeyer in the city of São Paulo. The exhibition was open for the public from the 5th November to the 4th December 2022, and has coincided with the 10th anniversary of the architect’s death.

ABERTO/01 was curated by Filipe Assis, Claudia Moreira Salles and Kiki Mazzucchelli and supported by the Oscar Niemeyer Foundation. The participating galleries were Fortes D’Aloia & Gabriel, Galeria Leme, Luciana Brito, Luisa Strina, Mendes Wood DM, Nara Roesler, Sé, as well as DAN Galeria, Paulo Kuczynski, Pinakotheke and Simões de Assis.

The exhibition was divided into five sections organized by theme, each located in a different space in the house, creating specific dialogues between artworks and Niemeyer's architecture. The event also saw the launch of an easel designed by Claudia Moreira Salles in partnership with ETEL, which was part of the show's scenography.

Niemeyer House

Designed in the 1960s and built between 1970 and 1974, in Alto de Pinheiros, the residence was the ideal place to host the first edition of ABERTO and celebrate the strong bond between art and architecture. Its curves, which reproduce the shapes of the Panamericana Square, and its large glass panels – typical of Niemeyer's lyrical and sculptural aesthetics – connect the internal and external spaces, consulting a fluid and poetic architecture.
