CHOREOGRAPHIES OF THE IMPOSSIBLE: THE CURATORIAL TEXT OF THE 35TH SÃO PAULO BIENNIAL
The 35th edition of the São Paulo Biennial, the largest contemporary art exhibition in Latin America, will take place in 2023 and the Fundação Bienal launched the first curatorial text. CHOREOGRAPHIES OF THE IMPOSSIBLE presents the key concepts and ideas.
The first curatorial text was written by Diane Lima, Grada Kilomba, Hélio Menezes and Manuel Borja-Villel. The idea of forming a group with a horizontal structure –without a chief curatorial figure– is central to the project.
Choreographies of the Impossible is all about movements, capturing the sequences and choreographies that are generated as the bodies and forms move. There is a quest to capture the enigmatic character of the artistic act, the element that is not evident to the eye, the mysterious or secrecy of every work.
"We employ the term choreography to highlight the practice of drawing sequences of movements through time and space, generating multiple and new fractions, forms, images and possibilities, despite all the infeasibility and negation. We are interested in rhythms, tools, strategies and technologies, as well as all the symbolic, economic and legal procedures that extra-disciplinary knowledge is capable of promoting, thus producing escape, refusal and its poetic exercises," explains the collective curatorial text.
The 35th São Paulo Biennial will be held from September to December 2023.

During the last years painting has continued its course in permanent metamorphosis, adapting to the times, reviving from its previous deaths, stripping itself of accessories, undressing and even disappearing. A part of this process has focused on the mechanisms of production; the other, has been accompanied by an intense reflection that goes beyond painting and meditates on the status of image.

The rise of the philosophy of language in the middle of the last century impacted all areas of humanistic culture, especially theoretical thought and the arts. The notions of discourse, story and narrative are part of that linguistic turn in which culture is perceived as a text. This approach has also influenced the conceptualization, appreciation and evaluation of the visual arts, even in the face of the programmatic reluctance of art-purism and its rejection of the anecdotal. Basically, the discursive subjects, the story and the narration displaced the old leading role of the "retinal" aesthetics. Since then, a large part of the artistic questions are aired in the verbal sphere and not in the strictly sensible plane.
