"Igbá Odù: The Strong Arms of Memory" opens on January 22nd at the Centro Cultural Correios.
A solo exhibition by artist Reitchel Komch explores questions surrounding the African diaspora in Brazil and Black heritage.

About the lecture:

"'Transcendence' (defined in at least three ways) will be presented as the purest function of architecture. Contemporary phenomenological and scientific methods will be used to examine the relationship between the mind and materiality, as revealed in significant architectural experiences. Through this discussion and various examples, we will realize that, for the first time in history, we can begin to consider and concretely address the most important and timeless questions of architecture and, perhaps, of human existence. — Julio Bermudez"
