With five traveling exhibitions of the 36th Bienal de São Paulo – Not All Travellers Walk Roads – Of Humanity as Practice currently on view across Brazil, the Fundação Bienal de São Paulo announces the next stages of the program, which will continue to six additional Brazilian cities and three international destinations over the coming months, reaching fifteen locations throughout 2026.

Earth samples collected from different regions of Brazil are processed into pigments or left in their raw state in a kind of laboratory. A sculpture composed of long strips of fabric dyed with natural pigments evokes a rock or a network of trails waiting to be explored. Technique and poetics come together in Terra viva [Living Earth] by Marlene Almeida, an installation created especially for the 36th Bienal de São Paulo. The work is now part of the Bienal’s traveling exhibition in Fortaleza. Read the artist’s statement.
