Lessons and Parables
Opening

Exhibition
20.11.21 – 12.12.21
The exhibition Lessons and Parables inhabits the contested spaces of memory by looking at hegemonic
narratives of history and the traditions of songs of remembrance. Mabe Bethônico’s work analyzes
pedagogical material used during the military dictatorship in Brazil and proposes new readings for the
banalization of violence in such images. Jonathan Ospina presents a video-essay on the musical
expressions of Chocó — in the pacific coast of Colombia — and their role in the production of memory and
resilience.
