Contra-Flecha

Contra-Flecha is an exhibition program interested in new perspectives on the history and production of Brazilian art. Its aim is to create shows that bridge the works from the collection/network of the Almeida & Dale gallery—primarily modern pieces from the 20th century—and guest artists directly invited or selected through an open call. The selection criteria include the dialogue between artistic proposals and the curatorial focus of each edition, as well as the opportunity to provide visibility to artists at the beginning of their careers or without a presence in the art market. The program inaugurates the gallery's annual exhibition and publication calendar, serving as a catalyst for essential debates and fostering new connections among art professionals. Therefore, each year, the program will promote a new edition with its own conceptual/curatorial proposition and, consequently, a new title.
