    Fall / Winter 2024
    Exploring mythology, history, and contemporary politics, Armería (Armory) presents sculptures that reimagine ancient tools as metaphors for current realities. The title refers to a conceptual collection of weapons, reinterpreted as symbols of protection and transformation, emphasizing resilience and shared cultural legacies.

    Through a poetic dialogue between past and present, the exhibition reflects on identity and cultural heritage, providing a critical perspective on the urgent need for transformation in a world shaped by conflict.

    The first act of Saravá—a greeting rooted in Afro-Brazilian traditions—reflects on Latin America’s cultural richness, shaped by its African and Indigenous diasporas. Featuring painting, photography, and sculpture, the exhibition highlights contemporary Brazilian expressions, blending ancestral devotion with reimagined futures.

     

    Through these works, the exhibition invites reflection on identity, memory, and the transformative power of art in envisioning equitable worlds.

  • Past

    Reiners Contemporary Art, in its early years, developed an intensive programme of exhibitions aimed at strengthening the links between Brazilian, German and Spanish artists. This effort resulted in solo and group exhibitions focusing on the social and political dimension of contemporary artistic practices in the context of global grammars. The languages of painting, photography and sculpture have been at the forefront of its agenda, with a special predilection for exquisite surfaces and the sharpness of the narratives contained in them. Its thematic concerns have been strongly linked to the guiding statements of contemporary aesthetic debate. Issues related to post-colonial theory, queer narratives, the corporeal as a definition of the political-interpellant, feminist interrogation, baroque theatricality and the questioning of the statutes of truth as a fabricated construction, have constituted the fundamental nuclei of Reiners Contemporary Art exhibition proposal.


    From 2023 to Fall 2024, the gallery space has been closed for renovations, during which time we have focused on off-site exhibitions in partner galleries and institutions, as well as expanding our presence in art fairs.
