Summary:

Exhibition curated by Lauro Cavalcanti who is also the director of Casa Roberto Merinho. Based on the historical importance of the Institute Casa Roberto Marinho, which was a Burle Marx project. The design for the garden was made by Burle Marx which was one of his first projects for the private sector and a successful example of the Tropical Lanscaping that would become his hallmark. In the late 1980's Isabel Duprat carried out the renovation of the green area in agreement with the records of Burle Marx. The exhibition catalogue has four parts. "Instituto Casa Roberto Marinho, a center of reference for Brazilian modernism, is structured on the tripod of house, collection and garden. In the year of its opening as a cultural space, in 2018, ten contemporary artists were invited to produce their impressions on the theme of "House." In 2019, eleven artists created multiples on the garden, in this exhibition that we are now presenting (Angelo Venosa, Beatriz Milhazes, Carlito Carvalhosa, Iole de Freitas, Paulo Climachauska, Luciano Figueiredo, Hilal Sami Hilal, Maria Bonomi, Regina Silveira, Suzana Queiroga and Vania Mignone)" --Page 6.
