Introduction

Conceived for two unique spaces of modernist Brazilian architecture – the Museum of Modern Art (MAM Rio), in Rio de Janeiro, and the Casa Modernista, in São Paulo –, the exhibitions of the artists Daniel Steegmann Mangrané and Philippe Van Snick are mainly intended to underline the dualism and simultaneity in the work of both. The project is fruit of an institutional partnership between MAM RJ and the Museu da Cidade/Prefeitura de São Paulo that aims to reinforce the curatorial networks and collaboration between both institutions.
