About this event
The «Trópico sin tópico: Amazonas» exhibition will take place from 13 February to 22 June at CentroCentro. It invites us to change our perception of Indigenous peoples and their relationship with modernity. From idealisation to stereotypes, Indigenous cultures have long been interpreted through a Western prism. Latin American artists such as Juliet Morales explore the political, social and cultural tensions faced by these communities.
From the rubber genocide to the struggle for rights, artists such as Manuel Quintín Lamé, the exhibition breaks myths and broadens perceptual horizons, emphasising the need for a future in which all forms of life can exist as equals.
