An interactive installation for bicycles.<\/p>\n
In Rio de Janeiro in the 1960s, the choreographer Jo\u00e3o Saldanha experienced in his childhood the dream of Brazilian modernist architecture to plastically and sophisticatedly unite the indomitable nature of Brazil in the abstractions of the planned modern city. In it, the permeability for pedestrians, the varied relationship with solar incidence, the vernacular fruition of local materials and resources, architecture as a meeting of the people, come together in the utopian desire for a new world made into a living space by architects such as L\u00facio Costa, Oscar Niemeyer and Lina Bo Bardi. In his afternoons in the Rio neighborhood of Leblon, Jo\u00e3o would venture out on his bicycle to a whole series of buildings built under this influence, long before most of these residential areas were gridded due to growing urban violence. The ramps, pilotis, winding gardens, free access and suspended planes were his childhood territories of discovery and experimentation, where volume, speed, flow, distances and framings were accessed by his body in education of the senses.<\/p>\n
Modern Promenade<\/em> recaptures the rich kinetic experience that informs the spatial poetics of Brazilian choreographer Jo\u00e3o Saldanha and his encounter with Brazilian modernist architecture in 1960s Rio de Janeiro. In this interactive outdoor installation created by the collaboration between Brazilian choreographer Gustavo Cir\u00edaco and Portuguese architect Jo\u00e3o Gon\u00e7alo Lopes, the simplicity of the structural elements and the volumes and textures of Brazilian modernist architecture present in the different layers of Saldanha’s embodied experience reappear transfigured in the constructed landscape of this bicycle circuit.<\/p>\n Conceived by Brazilian choreographer Gustavo Cir\u00edaco, the Covered by Sky collection inaugurates a series of interactive installations and performances inspired by poignant landscape experiences lived by South American and Portuguese artists. Driven by curiosity about how artists perceive and express the world through space, as well as about the intersection between art, space and poetic signature, Cir\u00edaco embarks on a journey of discovery through the spatial poetics of these creators and their unique ways of being mirrors of the world.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Modern Promenade <\/em>is the fourth work in the collection Covered by Sky.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"gustavo-ciriaco-2","image":{"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758.jpg","id":175674,"extension":"jpg","width":1300,"height":424,"filesize":261334,"sizes":{"medium":{"width":300,"height":98,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":11802,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-300x98.jpg"},"large":{"width":1024,"height":334,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":92738,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-1024x334.jpg"},"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":9024,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-150x150.jpg"},"medium_large":{"width":768,"height":250,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":58464,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-768x250.jpg"},"home-1":{"width":385,"height":424,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":49084,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-385x424.jpg"},"home-2":{"width":600,"height":272,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":52750,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-600x272.jpg"},"custom_card_size":{"width":436,"height":220,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":34456,"url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/SITE-PAISAGEM-BOLDO-1-e1716371665758-436x220.jpg"}}},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2024-06-29 08:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"29","hour":"08","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2024-06-29 17:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"29","hour":"17","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2024-06-29 07:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"29","hour":"07","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2024-06-29 16:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"29","hour":"16","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"Europe\/Lisbon","timezone_abbr":"WEST","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_code":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":false,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":117320,"author":"1","status":"publish","date":"2023-04-06 09:52:51","date_utc":"2023-04-06 08:52:51","modified":"2023-04-06 12:39:48","modified_utc":"2023-04-06 11:39:48","url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/venue\/centro-cultural-de-belem\/","venue":"Centro Cultural de Bel\u00e9m","slug":"centro-cultural-de-belem","address":"Pra\u00e7a do Imp\u00e9rio","city":"Lisboa","country":"Portugal","province":"Lisboa","zip":"1449-003","phone":"(+351) 21 361 2400","stateprovince":"Lisboa","json_ld":{"@type":"Place","name":"Centro Cultural de Bel\u00e9m","description":"","url":"https:\/\/www.ccb.pt\/venue\/centro-cultural-de-belem\/","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"Pra\u00e7a do Imp\u00e9rio","addressLocality":"Lisboa","addressRegion":"Lisboa","postalCode":"1449-003","addressCountry":"Portugal"},"telephone":"(+351) 21 361 2400","sameAs":""},"show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"global_id":"www.ccb.pt\/en\/?id=117320","global_id_lineage":["www.ccb.pt\/en\/?id=117320"]},"organizer":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Gustavo Cir\u00edaco & Jo\u00e3o Gon\u00e7alo Lopes","description":"<p>An interactive installation for bicycles.
