Katia Canton, 2008-2016

de Katia Canton, Otávio Nazareth

A theoretical course of more than 20 years has made Katia Canton, a free teacher at the Museum of Contemporary Art - MAC / USP, one of the great specialists in Brazil and abroad on the relationship between arts and fairy tales. In dialogue with these researches, she devoted herself to an extensive artistic production presented in this volume. The diversity of supports - drawings, paintings, poems, photographs, objects and installations - reveals one of the hallmarks of Katia's work, interdisciplinarity. In this multiple way, it investigates, critically discusses, re-interprets - and re-introduces us in a surprising way - this magical universe, so present in our collective unconscious.
