Marepe - Galerie Max Hetzler

The thematic repertoire of Marepe’s (b. 1970) work questions his roots: traditions and culture of his native region of Bahia in Brazil, the notion of poverty, colonialism and globalism are the artist's main concerns. His work is characterised by a personal sensuality combined with a socio-cultural and political verve, symbolised by the use of readymade materials and everyday objects or activities from his home region.

“Marepe’s work is full of clashes and crossovers - between the traditional and the popular, the local and the foreign, the national and the international, the South and the North, the Brazilian Northeast and Southeast, the personal and the political, the familial and the official, the poor and the rich, high-tech and low-tech, high and low culture. These clashes and crossovers find their echo in different characters as the ambulante, the retirante, the migrant, [...] and the artist himself, who moves from one place to another in the world with his works full of memories and meanings and many possible translations.”
