Galeria Leme from Sao Paulo has a beautiful arte povera piece, a rather stunning one actually, that defines this unique culture wherein artist Alexandre Brandao fills
some ordinary lunch bags with damp graphite which creeps up the walls of the paper bags creating a beautiful mountainous landscape.
The paintings, sculptures, photographs, drawings and videos focus on
ordinary objects, such as a brown paper
lunch bag, a pink eraser or a 2 - ply, white garbage
bag, which are transformed by the artists, who employ unexpected materials or play with scale.
