Mercedes Viegas Arte Contemporânea will open the exhibition "Adalberto Mecarelli – Luz +" on December 12, 2019, at 7:00 PM for guests, and the following day for the general public. The exhibition features works by the artist, who was born in Terni, Italy, in 1946, and has been based in Paris for 50 years. This is the first exhibition in Brazil by the sculptor, whose abstract constructive approach is noted for research into light and shadow and solar light recordings. Their work is featured in various public spaces across European countries, including France, Italy, and Germany. "The exhibition primarily presents light sculptures that engage with the gallery space—geometric forms sculpted by shadow," notes curator Elisa Byington, who selected works by the artist spanning various techniques and materials.

About the Book: The second expanded edition of the book Remanescentes da Mata Atlântica presents, in an even broader and more compelling way—with nearly 200 new images—the visual history of this biome, which dominates Brazil's entire coastal landscape and has been devastated throughout recent history.

The 8th {CURA} Prize continues the initiative of hosting idea competitions on themes aligned with current discussions in architecture, the city, and society, with a focus on contemporary Brazil.

Eat, Ask, Repeat: An Investigation into Food and the City. The city and food are more closely related than you might think. Our bodies act as the mediators in this relationship. This book of questions materializes research conducted within the Master in Architectural Communication (MAca9) program at ETSAM. This publication offers a critical look at the dynamics of production, consumption, and the right to the city. What drives us to overeat? Or to eat too little? Is food an elemental resource for survival, or has it become a different kind of entity today? We invite you to reflect on aspects that go unnoticed in our daily lives within this great kitchen we call the city.

In Espacio, cuerpo y mente, Ana Mombiedro explores the intersection of architecture, neuroscience, and psychology to reveal how built spaces influence physiological, cognitive, and socio-emotional health. The book offers a profound and captivating perspective on the value of neuroarchitecture, demonstrating that the design of a place can enhance one's sense of well-being.
