Synchronicity

Curated by Jacopo Crivelli Visconti, ETEL is pleased to invite you to the opening of the new exhibition taking place simultaneously at Casa Zalszupin and Jaqueline Martins Gallery:

"LABINAC – What We've Always Done" is an exhibition that unfolds in two very different spaces, where these unique objects are placed in relation and friction with contexts that allow different readings of them, prompting us to ask questions like: "Is this art?" "Is this furniture?"

From November 25, 2023, to February 24, 2024 

Scheduling from Tuesday to Saturday through the Casa Zalszupin website 

Organized by ETEL and Almeida & Dale Art Gallery

In occasion of the “Lake Como Design Festival 2023”, ETEL, partner of Oscar Niemeyer Foundation and Studio Superluna, presents one of the most prestigious masters of the 20th century - the architect and designer Oscar Niemeyer (1907-2012). Central to the installation, one of Niemeyer’s most acclaimed masterpieces - the iconic “Casa das Canoas” residence in Rio de Janeiro.

Curated by Ana Carolina Ralston, Casa Zalszupin is pleased to present the new exhibition:
Inner Landscape
Stitched together by the works of designer Etel Carmona, the exhibition brings together the perspectives of artists Alberto da Veiga Guignard and David Almeida with that of Etel. From this dialogue, lived and observed landscapes emerge through paintings, sculptures, and furniture that reconstruct the essence of Brazil's interior.
"The iconography of deep Brazil permeates Etel's work, from the blossoming of impatiens to the ox-drawn cart, always overlaid on dreamlike landscapes, scenes that were captured with praise by Guignard and David Almeida in the same regions," says curator Ana Carolina Ralston.

From June 27th to September 16th 2023

Curated by photographer and cultural manager Iatã Cannabrava, we are pleased to host the new exhibition at Casa Zalszupin: Sarau Zalszupin - Brazilian Modernist Utopias. A provocation. This is how curator Iatã Cannabrava defines the articulation between photographs of the national photo club movement, concrete poetry, the conception of Brasília and original re-editions of pieces of modern Brazilian furniture.

When: February 13 to March 18, 2023

Casa Zalszupin – managed by ETEL and the Almeida & Dale art gallery – and the Museu da Casa Brasileira – an institution managed by Fundação Padre Anchieta – came together to honor the centenary of birth of designer Jorge Zalszupin, one of the most successful representatives of the generation of architects who worked, between the 1950s and 1980s, in a unique way in the fields of design and Brazilian architecture.

On view from July 1 to September 11, 2022.

ETEL and Almeida & Dale invite you to the exhibition 'Elective Affinities', in which Claudia Moreira Salles, designer and curator of the show, presents her pieces of furniture, while revealing her creative process and her relationship with the visual arts. The designer presents part of her creation process, exposing the mixture of technical rigor, elegance and delicacy that characterizes her work.

To celebrate the re-emergence of in-person art fairs and events (after two years of pandemic and lockdown), ETEL, in collaboration with Ruy Teixeira, prepared a special essay with the pieces by Joaquim Tenreiro, Patricia Urquiola, Cristina Celestino and Daciano da Costa launched to the public at the 18th edition of SP-ARTE in 2022.

In honor of the birthday of urban planner and architect Lucio Costa, who would have turned 119, we invited Ciro Pirondi: architect and Member of the Board of the House of Lucio Costa, to write an article about this memorable character who permeated important stretches of the history of architecture and modern Brazilian design , and which continues to inspire new generations.
