This course—offered in three monthly modules (April, May, and June) of four classes each—will discuss central issues in the history of modern art through iconic works by Paul Cézanne, Louise Bourgeois, Le Corbusier, Marguerite Duras, Federico Fellini, Toyo Ito, Rem Koolhaas, Kazimir Malevich, Hannes Meyer, Aleksander Rodchenko, Arnold Schoenberg, and Giuseppe Terragni. The modules can be taken individually or sequentially. By adopting a critical and non-linear approach to the history of art and architecture, the classes will explore paradigmatic points of the field in the 20th century. The diverse group of young speakers selected—including art historians, curators, architects, and psychoanalysts—provides, in itself, an overview of contemporary art criticism and research in São Paulo.

In 2016, then-mayor of São Paulo João Doria announced a renovation project for Largo do Arouche, dubbed "Little Paris." The name refers to the square's French-inspired urban design and seeks to erase the memory of what can be considered one of the city's first LGBT+ territories.
