Ana Lira: Arting Politics

1 Jun 2017


Screen Shot 2017-06-01 at 16.45.14

Once  again we bring attention to Ana Lira, a photographer and artist from Recife, in the Brazilian State of Pernambuco. Lira has has moved from civil engineering to journalism and later to photography. One main feature of  Lira’s work is thatit usually  emerges from collective productions and it is highly political as illustrated by the  series ” Voto!”  (“Vote!”) that was exhibited at the 31st São Paulo Bienal of Arts,  in 2014,  of which two images illustrate this post.

In May 2717, Lira’s aesthetic critique is once again  in tune with the highly troubled Brazilian political climate.
