Summary:	Mira Schendel (b. Zurich, Switzerland 1919 - d. Brazil 1988), a Brazilian artist best known for her drawings on rice paper, but who was also a painter and sculptor. Curated by Paulo Venancio Filho, the exhibition reveals the power of synthesis of Mira Schendelœs work, permeated by lines, words, letters and scribbles. Opening on January 16th (from 20.00, with free entry for guests and the general public) and running until April 22nd 2018, the exhibition Mira Schendel: Sinais/Signals, is to be hosted by MAM Museu de Arte Moderna de São Paulo (Musuem of Modern Art of São Paulo) in the Paulo Figueiredo room, with the presentation of over 90 works by the Swiss artist Mira Schendel (1919 1988) who lived in Brazil in 1949. Curated by Paulo Venancio Filho, Sinais/Signals highlightœs Schendelœs principal characteristic, namely the process of reducing things to their minimumʺ in different media, which include paper and rice paper (the Monotypesʺ), but also the so-called Toquinhosʺ (or stubsʺ), small acrylic cubes or pieces of silk paper, onto which her characteristic signs and letters are applied. The materials used in the drawings and paintings include India ink, Ecoline, Letraset, typescript and oil paint. The show is sponsored by Bradesco.
