GLOBAL BRAZIL LAB | Africa in Brazilian Art, 1960's & 1970's
You can't imagine Brazilian culture without Africa,
-Prof. Roberto Conduru, Art Historian (Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro).
Watch his interview here:
Roberto Conduru's research, which he shares in this important keynote address as a part of the 2015 Global Brazil Conference at Duke University's Nasher Museum, demonstrates how potent the African influence is on Brazil's art world between the 1960's & 70's.
Conduru has an interdisciplinary approach to art history, building on visual anthropology, architecture, and religion in order to examine how modernity was built in Brazil. His recent book, Pérolas Negras- Primeiros Fios (2013), examines Afro-Brazilian artistic and cultural connections.
The GLOBAL BRAZIL Lab at FHI at Duke aims to generate new conversations between the humanities, the social sciences, and the sciences through research focused on Brazilian arts, social movements, and the natural environment. This talk was part of a three-day conference, which began on March 26th, 2015. The lab continues its commitment to shine an academic spotlight on the rising global profile of Brazil, the world’s fifth-largest country.
The significance of the Color white in Orixá tradition
Meet our two guests for this week on patreon.com/DanaMamanMV- Iya Fayomi and Baba Fasegun. They are both Initiated priests of Ifa which is one of the oldest religions in the Orixa traditions. Ifa is from Nigeria West Africa. Through migration of slaves from the region, Orixa worshiping has taken many different forms in the Americas, such as Santeria in Cuba, Vodun in Haiti. One of the forms this tradition took
in Brazil is Candomble and Ombanda. The rituals, customs, and songs of these religions have gotten incorporated in Capoeira as the two communities lived and grew side by side. So many of the things we do in capoeira have their origin in these tradition, in its DNA, yet manytimes we are not aware why does one even do them or the original reason things were done for. This month we will be exploring these very meanings in a series of interviews with Iya Fayomi and Baba Fasegun. To learn more about them and about their house of worship visit

Bahia - Brazil
As the chief locus of the early Brazilian slave trade, Bahia is considered to possess the greatest and most distinctive African imprint, in terms of culture and customs, in Brazil. These include the Yoruba-derived religious system of Candomblé, the martial art of capoeira, African-derived music such as samba (especially samba's Bahian precursor samba-de-roda), afoxé, and axé, and a cuisine with strong links to western Africa.
Bahia is the birthplace of many noted Brazilian artists, writers and musicians. Among the noted musical figures born in the state are Dorival Caymmi; João Gilberto; Gilberto Gil, the former (2003--2008) country's Minister of Culture; Caetano Veloso and his sister Maria Bethânia (Gil and Veloso being the founders of the Tropicália movement (a native adaptation of the hippie movement) of the late 1960s and early 1970s, which ultimate gained international recognition); Gal Costa; Luis Caldas; Sara Jane; Daniela Mercury; Ivete Sangalo; Carlinhos Brown and Margareth Menezes.
The city of Salvador is also home to famous groups known as blocos-afros, including Olodum, Ara Ketu, É o Tchan, and Ilê Aiyê. Additionally, groups such as Chiclete com Banana also are based in Bahia. The first well-known rock'n roll singer in Brazil was also from Bahia. Born Raul Seixas, he was known as Maluco Beleza or Peaceful Lunatic (being beleza (beauty) in this manner means to be either in peace or tranquil).
During the 19th century, one of Brazil's greatest poets, the Bahian abolitionist poet and playwright Castro Alves, a native of the recôncavo city of Cachoeira, penned his most famous poem, Navio negreiro, about slavery; the poem is considered a masterpiece of Brazilian Romanticism and a central anti-slavery text.
Other notable Bahian writers include playwright and screenwriter Dias Gomes, Gregório de Matos, who wrote during the 17th century and was one of the first Brazilian writers, and Fr. Antonio Vieira, who during the colonial period was one of many authors who contributed to the expansion of the Portuguese language throughout the Brazilian territory.
The major Brazilian fiction writer of the 20th century, Jorge Amado, was born in the southeastern Bahian city of Itabuna, and resided for many years in Salvador. His major novels include Gabriela, Cinnamon and Cloves; Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands; and Tieta, the Goat Girl, all of which became internationally renowned films. More recent writers from Bahia include the fiction writers João Ubaldo Ribeiro and Jean Wyllys, winner of Big Brother Brasil 5 in 2005. In the visual and plastic arts, one of the best known Bahian figures was the multigenre artist and Argentinian native Hector Julio Páride Bernabó, also known as Carybé (1911--1997). Fine examples of his work are visible in the Afro-Brazilian Museum in Salvador.
Grandes Maestros Exhibit Opens Nov. 9, 2014
November 9, 2014 – September 13, 2015
We are hosting the U.S. debut of the extraordinary traveling exhibition Grandes Maestros: Great Masters of Iberoamerican Folk Art, Collection of Fomento Cultural Banamex. This contemporary folk art show features spectacular works, the highest levels of achievement in traditional arts from communities across Mexico, Central and South America, Spain and Portugal.
In many cases, the works are modern art pieces stemming from long and rich ancestories, reaching back to the pre-Columbian era as well as influences from European and other traditions. The objects illustrate customs, religions, festivals and devotions, myths, familial legacies, and everyday life — so the artisans are reinterpreting longstanding traditions, while also creating new ones.
Curated by Cándida Fernández de Calderón, Director of Fomento Cultural Banamex in Mexico City, the show boasts more than 800 works on view, made by more than 600 of the most accomplished artists from 22 countries — Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, México, Nicaragua, Panamá, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Uruguay, Venezuela as well as Spain and Portugal. The pieces represent a broad range of specialties and materials including clay, wood, plant fibers, paper, leather, silver, wax, coconuts, beads, shell, glass and stones.
The exhibit has been seen previously in Latin America and Spain, but not yet in the United States.

Brazil: The Story of Slavery
United Nations - More than four million slaves were shipped to Brazil from the coast of Africa during the 16th century and onward. But the practice of slavery was abolished in 1888 when abolitionists brought the issue to the forefront. Today, descendants in Danda community – a quilombo – fight for their right to land that their ancestors once lived and worked on for generations.

Memories of Slavery in Brazil (Memories on the Edge of Oblivion)
This ethnographic documentary, shot in 2008, explores how memory of slavery intersects with life experience, black affirmation and urban reconversions in the Port area of Rio de Janeiro until that year. Despite the central place that Rio de Janeiro played in the Atlantic slave trade until the end of the 19th century, traces of this past have for long looked hidden in the urban landscape. This forgetting is not simply a random phenomenon, it also relates to the myth of racial democracy as an ideal that has actively tried to downplay racial inequalities in Brazil in the name of national mixture. Albeit little visible, the memories of a slave past are not deleted completely. They emerge ambiguously, but also powerfully, in the daily life of Tia Lúcia and Alder, the main characters of this film. Since slave memory is eventually being rediscovered and memorialised since 2011, this film represents a piece of history of how this subject was treated in the port area of Rio de Janeiro until 2008.
Ooni of Ife to inaugurate maiden Oduduwa Mobile museum, Library
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, in conjunction with the Brazilian government, is set to unveil an Oduduwa Mobile Library on Sept. 7, to boost cultural awareness in the country…The cultural ambassador, House of Oduduwa Foundation, Princess Ronke Ademiluyi, told the News Agency of Nigeria on Sunday in Lagos, that the project would redirect interest of culture among the youths. According to her, the N5 million worth of museum is an initiative from the Ọọ̀ni of Ifẹ̀, in conjunction with governments of Brazil and Cuba as well as over 20 other countries. She said that the countries involved in the exercise would have the artifacts moved round to them. Ademiluyi told NAN that the project would have economic, political, and socio-cultural benefits to the country as it would attract global attention to the richness of Odùduwà culture. She said that the historic event, which would have tourism potentials, would be flagged-off on Sept. 7, at the Brazilian Embassy in Lagos.
“The whole event will last 60 days, as cultural materials of African origin will be strategically moved from place to place within Lagos and exhibited for all to see.“The event that is scheduled to coincide with the 197th Independence Anniversary of Brazil of Sept. 7, 1822,” she said. Ademiluyi, the founder of Africa Fashion Week, Nigeria/London, noted that the choice of collaborating with Brazil, was because it was a country with over 80 million Odùduwà population.“Brazil is the first country to collaborate with the House of Odùduwà on the promotion of African Heritage due to her acceptance of Yoruba people and culture.“It is noteworthy to mention that Brazil had gone as far as adopting Yorùbá language as one of it’s the official language in the country,” she added. She said that the program would include a four- day exhibition of antiquities, art recreations of divinities, and treasures of ancestors of the Odùduwà people.“The cultural items combine to reinforce the belief that, indeed, humanity originated from Ilé-Ifẹ̀, the acclaimed origin of the Odùduwà people located in the South Western part of Nigeria,” she said.

VENEZUELA: CARACAS: FINAL PREPARATIONS UNDERWAY FOR POPE'S VISIT
Spanish/Nat
Final preparations are now underway for the Pope's forthcoming visit to Venezuela.
Pope John Paul II will be visiting Venezuela in February as part of a Latin American tour which will also take him to El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua.
A state-of-the-art Pope-mobile has been assembled with the help of the military. It has been designed to meet the special needs of the aging pontiff.
With the blessing of Venezuela's Catholic Church, a special edition of the Pope-mobile has been unveiled as part of the final preparations for Pope John Paul II's visit to Venezuela.
The state-of-the-art vehicle was handed over to members of the Venezuelan Episcopalian Conference by President Rafael Caldera on Friday.
The Pope-mobile will drive the pontiff during his February visit.
The vehicle was designed and built with the help of the Venezuelan National Armed Forces to provide security and aid the aging Pope on his trip.
SOUNDBITE: (Spanish)
The Pope will come to meet the people. To meet the Catholic and the non-Catholic community. He will come to meet the people, the community and therefore this Pope-mobile will make it easier than the other Pope-mobiles. There have been studies of the characteristics of the other vehicles and there have been a series of improvements.
SUPER CAPTION: Monsignor Ovideo Perez Morales, President of the Venezuelan Episcopalian Conference
SOUNDBITE: (Spanish)
The Pope-mobile has been designed to provide comfort to Pope John Paul II, especially because he is no longer in the same condition as eleven years ago.
SUPER CAPTION: General Wilfredo Guerrero, Direction of Military Intelligence
The armoured vehicle is considered the most advanced Pope-mobile assembled so far.
Among its many features is a special seat that will allow the Pope
to sit down while driving through the crowds. Revellers will be able to see the pontiff even if he sits down.
While he is in Venezuela the Pope will celebrate a mass that is expected to draw one-point-two (m) million people.
A special lift is being made for the 75-year-old pontiff to avoid a three-storey climb to the altar.
SOUNDBITE: (Spanish)
There will be an elevator on the back that will lift the Pope all the way up. Due to his age he cannot climb the number of steps up the stage.
SUPER CAPTION: Ramon Gascue, Architect
The Pope broke his leg in April 1994 and underwent hip replacement surgery.
His visit to Venezuela between the ninth and eleventh of February will be his second in a decade.

It includes Ernst Fuchs, Arik Brauer, Rudolf Hausner, Wolfgang Hutter, Anton Lehmden and Fritz Janschka, all students of Professor Albert Paris Gutersloh at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. It was Gutersloh's emphasis on the techniques of the Old Masters that gave the Fantastic Realist painters a grounding in realism (expressed with a clarity and detail some have compared to early Flemish painting) combined with religious and esoteric symbolism.

Burying the Past - Brazil's Slave Holocaust
A slavery museum in Rio de Janeiro could close thanks to a lack of funding, and many say because the political and economic elites do not want this painful past exposed.
