RESIDÊNCIA / ANTESTREIA
BIENALSUR presents SHE DEVIL, a project launched in 2006 by STUDIO STEFANIA MISCETTI in Rome, where the 13th edition will be held this year. She-Devil, or Shanna the She-Devil, is the name of an adventurous Marvel heroine, one of the first whose identity features break with stereotypical roles of femininity. Inspired by Shanna's mischievous, irreverent, and incisive spirit, SHE DEVIL is an ongoing female curatorial collective. The gender perspective is defined by the theme chosen for each edition: the body, power, the struggle, the mirror. Each curator selects an audio-visual work, introduced by a brief description. Additionally, all the participants jointly contemplate and discuss the work of the artists chosen by their colleagues, following a format reminiscent of the women's salons of the 19th century. At that time, the domestic domain was the primary space for the political education of women, who were excluded from public debates. SHE DEVIL serves as a reminder that the salon model and the informal gathering are still tools of empowerment through "the feminisation of conversation as an intellectual, artistic and political practice".
In the halls of the MUNTREF Museo de Artes Visuales, BIENALSUR presents a selection of 14 videos of the SHE DEVIL project, which will offer a transversal reading of its different editions. At the end of the tour, two video loops summarising each edition will be presented, and the auditorium will screen a loop with historical videos that were part of the proposal. Finally, in line with the constant expansion of SHE DEVIL, the project in Argentina incorporates new voices: four curators from the BIENALSUR team invite four local artists to present their work.

Away Day for the Faculty of Creative and Cultural Industries
The mainstream fashion industry is built upon the exploitation of labour and natural resources. Wealth and power are concentrated in the hands of a few, and growth and profit are rewarded above all else. Big brands and retailers produce too much too fast and manipulate us into a toxic cycle of overconsumption. Meanwhile, the majority of people that make our clothes are not paid enough to meet their basic needs, and already feel the impacts of the climate crisis - which the fashion industry fuels. As global citizens, we all have the power to take action. This Fashion Revolution Week, join us in reimagining a just and equitable fashion system for people and the planet.
On the panel we have: Dr Sass Brown, Bel Jacobs, and Beata Wilczek Moderated by Lara Torres and Noorin Khamisani.

SÓNIA BAPTISTA
WOW
In Ancient Greece, beautiful and good were considered to be inseparable concepts. The contemplation of beauty was supposed not only to produce wonder and delight but also to bring the spectator closer to a wish for justice and a desire for higher ideals. But, over time, the cult of beauty has also had its detractors. Beauty, they maintain, is a mere distraction from what really matters. More than beauty, it is the ugliness that leads us to transcend the appearance of physical matter and that opens our minds to the truthful and the haunting perception of the sublime. As if it were a transcendental shock, a creation of the mind, in which terror and pleasure are mixed together.
At the end of the day, we can show the grace of what we have because our disgrace is beautiful for others.
The ugly seems beautiful to those who love it.
