Revisit the exhibition 'Trajetórias Cruzadas' which brought together photographs by Claudia Andujar, Lux Vidal and Maureen Bisilliat for the first time

The Image and Sound Laboratory in Anthropology (LISA-USP) releases the presentation film for the exhibition "Trajetórias Cruzadas" (Crossed Trajectories), which brought together photographs by Claudia Andujar, Lux Vidal, and Maureen Bisilliat. The exhibition was on display at the Maria Antonia Center - USP from October 2024 to February 2025.

The three women are photographers whose careers were marked by World War II, experiences in various countries, and knowledge of several languages. In Brazil, their journeys intertwined, revealing a Brazil little known even to Brazilians. Their activism for indigenous rights remains remarkable to this day.

Curated by anthropologists Sylvia Caiuby Novaes and Fabiana Bruno, the exhibition was featured in Folha de S. Paulo, and the article is available at this link.
