Connecting artistic practices across Brazil and Europe
Brisa Galeria works across Brazil and Paris, developing exhibitions, collaborations and special projects with contemporary artists. Its programme brings together different artistic practices, contexts and perspectives through an itinerant and flexible approach to exhibition-making.
DANIEL MATTAR
Daniel Mattar is a Brazilian artist and photographer based in Paris. His practice explores the intersections between photography, painting, and sculpture, with a focus on light, materiality, and scale.
MARITZA CANECA
Maritza Caneca is a Miami-based visual artist working across photography, film, and multimedia installations. Her practice explores light, geometry, and the narratives found in everyday spaces, with a particular focus on swimming pools and architectural environments.
CÁSSIO VASCONCELLOS
Cássio Vasconcellos (São Paulo, 1965) is a Brazilian photographer whose practice explores urban landscapes, nature, and the transformation of the world through the photographic image. Since beginning his career in 1981, he has developed an extensive body of work exhibited internationally.
IRMÃS GELLI
Alice and Gabi Gelli are Brazilian artists and sisters from Rio de Janeiro whose practice explores encounter, exchange, and time through material and physical processes. Their work embraces repetition, scale, and the tactile qualities of materials such as paper and wax.
NANA MORAES
Nana Moraes (Rio de Janeiro, 1963) is a Brazilian photographer whose career spans more than three decades across editorial, cultural, and advertising photography. Her work explores portraiture, memory, absence, and the human experience.
MILTON MONTENEGRO
Milton Montenegro (Rio de Janeiro, 1954) is a Brazilian photographer whose practice has been closely connected to the development of digital image-making. Since the 1980s, he has explored photography and computer graphics, creating images that challenge the boundaries of the medium.
DUDU GARCIA
Dudu Garcia is a Brazilian artist based in Rio de Janeiro whose practice explores the relationship between abstraction, urban landscapes, and the passage of time. His paintings incorporate organic and industrial materials, creating textured surfaces that reveal traces of matter and transformation.
NELSON PORTO
Nelson Porto (Rio de Janeiro, 1978) is a Brazilian artist whose practice explores perception, reality, and the ways light and shadow shape our understanding of the world. Working across photography, drawing, video, and virtual reality, his work investigates nature, time, and illusion.
ADRIANO FAGUNDES
Adriano Fagundes is a Brazilian photographer whose practice spans documentary, editorial, and artistic photography. His work explores people, places, culture, and the relationship between image, memory, and travel.
PATRÍCIA GOÙVEA
Patricia Goùvea (Rio de Janeiro, 1973) is a Brazilian visual artist and researcher working across photography, video, film, installation, and urban intervention. Her practice explores time, the body, nature, environmental destruction, and the erasures of memory.
Brisa no Rio was an exhibition presented by Brisa Galeria in Rio de Janeiro, bringing together works by Daniel Mattar and Kim Courbet in a dialogue between material, space, and transformation.
The exhibition marked the gallery’s return to the city where its founders were born, creating a space for exchange, collaboration, and new encounters between the artists and their practices.
In her second exhibition at Brisa Galeria, Maritza Caneca revisits the swimming pool through embroidery, photography, and painting. Water, tile, light, and repetition become elements of a sensorial and intimate investigation.
Daniel Mattar’s Photographic Drawings enters the collection of the Deji Art Museum and is presented in its reopening exhibition in Nanjing, China.
Brisa Galeria brings together Daniel Mattar, Irmãs Gelli, Nelson Porto, Patricia Goùvea, Cássio Vasconcellos, and Milton Montenegro in an exploration of landscape, matter, time, and the transformation of the contemporary image.
