Nicola Lo Calzo / Nego Fugido, mémoires quilombolas

MAFRA Museu Afro Brasileiro - UFBA Salvador de Bahia

November 6, 2025 - February 6, 2026

As part of the Brazil-France Season 2025, Nego Fugido by Nicola Lo Calzo is a travelling monographic exhibition presented at the Ygrec-ENSAPC Art Centre in Aubervilliers, the Alliance Française in Brasilia, the Photo Rio festival and now at MAFRA in Salvador de Bahia. The exhibition offers a sensitive immersion in a celebration of freedom, where images become a means of resistance and reappropriation. Produced in the Quilombola community of Acupe, in Bahia, Brazil, the annual staging of Nego Fugido combines ritual and performance to reconstruct, from the perspective of the descendants of slaves, the struggle for black emancipation.

Hannah Collins / Exposition Soy Fuego

Soy Fuego was born out of the artist's personal experiences and her extensive travels throughout Latin America - from the Colombian Amazon to the volcanoes of Michoacán, from the skies of the Atacama Desert to the forests of Veracruz - contexts in which she established close ties with local communities, sharing knowledge and rituals that shape a deeper perception of nature and its cycles.

2021 - 17 - DECEMBER - SUE WILLIAMSON // HUNDRED HEROINES

Sue Williamson is part of the generation of South African artists and photographers whose work challenged the apartheid government in the 70s and 80s.

Sue Williamson is part of the generation of South African artists and photographers whose work challenged the apartheid government in the 70s and 80s. Her best known work at the time was the series, A Few South Africans, etched and screen-printed portraits of women deeply involved in the struggle for liberation, portraits which were also widely distributed as postcards. Post 1994, Williamson turned her attention to the stories of apartheid atrocities being revealed in the hearings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, with such works as Truth Games, and the video series, No More Fairy Tales.

Williamson was born in Lichfield, England in 1941 and immigrated with her family to South Africa when she was seven. Her studio is in Cape Town, and her work engages with themes of human rights, memory, trauma and identity formation. Trained as a printmaker at the Art Students League of New York and the Michaelis School of Fine Art, Cape Town, the artist has worked across a variety of media including photography, video, mixed media installation, and constructed objects.

She has been represented on numerous biennales, and her work is held in many international public collections, such as MoMA New York, the Pompidou Centre Paris, the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, the National Museum of African Art, Washington and the Tate Modern and Victoria & Albert Museums, London. Her first London solo show, Testimony, was held at the Goodman Gallery in 2021. She is also known for her writing on contemporary African art.
