Constructive Will in the Fadel Collection
The exhibition presents the steps followed by the constructive ideas set in Brazil, through individual research and collective movements, from the first approaches of the European avant-garde art in the early decades of the 20th century, to its development between 1960 and 1980, when experimentalism incorporated socio-political issues, conceptualism, and the revision of modernism.
