2 Is there room for imagination nowadays? Are there other ways to perceive the world? Are there alternative ways of being in the world through artistic experience? Could we invent (or rescue) more ludic, poetic, sensitive, silent and (why not) amateur approaches to deal with those issues with people at large? What does political reinvention really would mean from the perspective(s) of art? How could art best contribute to that reinvention? Living in a place where inequality reigns in all aspects of life, wish (perhaps utopic) is to commune such imagination with broader audiences not so focused on contemporary art trends, being in mind the rich, diverse and emancipated spectators we all are, regardless of education background, social class or cultural identity. Life is broader. So is art. Alice Shintani Sao Paulo, Brazil (under coup d etat), march 2017.
