JOANA VASCONCELOS | BRAFA: GUEST OF HONOR

26 January 2025 

BRAFA will spotlight Joana Vasconcelos as its guest of honour this year, she will be the first female artist to hold the title. 

 

Joana Vasconcelos will be bringing a pop, colourful and festive touch to the 70th edition of BRAFA: "For this historic edition, I am proposing the installation of works that I have been developing since last year in collaboration with Dior. This series will feature two monumental sculptures, the placement of which I believe will serve as an aesthetic and conceptual focal point at the fair. These works are intended to not only celebrate the fair’s rich heritage but also to engage in a dialogue with the contemporary moment, creating an atmosphere that resonates with the depth and vision that BRAFA embodies. Through this installation, my hope is to contribute to the creation of a distinctive and memorable experience, befitting the significance of BRAFA’s 70th anniversary."
