(CAST) Tomando su título del primer verso del poema Laberinto de Jorge Luis Borges, esta exposición reúne instalaciones, dibujos, esculturas, pinturas, vídeos y libros de artistas pertenecientes a la colección de arte contemporáneo internacional reunida por Luiz Augusto Teixeira de Freitas.
Con el objetivo de reflejar la amplia variedad de significados que puede alcanzar una colección de arte, la muestra se organiza como un laberinto: no tiene un comienzo ni un final, ningún tema específico, no está centrada en ningún territorio, época o creencia. Y, sin embargo, las opciones que se plantean son infinitas: se establecen diálogos, se generan encuentros, se deconstruyen supuestos previos y se despliegan innumerables posibilidades. De entre los artistas seleccionados destacan importantes nombres del arte contemporáneo internacional como Cildo Meireles, Dahn Vo, Damián Ortega, Gordon Matta-Clark, Jonathan Monk, Jorge Macchi, Julião Sarmento, Luisa Lambri, Nina Canell, Robert Kinmont, Sanja Ivekovic, Sofia Hultén, Tamar Guimarães, Thomas Ruff y Walid Raad entre otros.

In order to reflect the wide variety of meanings that an art collection can achieve, the exhibition is organized as a labyrinth: it has neither a beginning nor an end, no specific theme, it is not centered in any territory, time or belief. And, nevertheless, the options that are posed are endless: dialogues are established, encounters are generated, previous assumptions are deconstructed and innumerable possibilities unfold. Among the selected artists, are important international contemporary art names such as Cildo Meireles, Dahn Vo, Damian Ortega, Gordon Matta-Clark, Jonathan Monk, Jorge Macchi, Julião Sarmento, Luisa Lambri, Nina Canell, Robert Kinmont, Sanja Ivekovic, Sofia Hultén , Tamar Guimarães, Thomas Ruff and Walid Raad along with many others.
