Brasil Kulturwissenschaft is a festival celebrating Brazilian art in an integrated circuit of visual arts exhibitions, video installations, cinema, music concerts, gastronomy, lectures and workshops.
Creating a field of aesthetic immersion from the urban context, the project Brasil Kulturwissenschaft creates an atmosphere of connection, pointing out poetic axes of proximity between the main contemporary practices and also exposing in a harmonic way aesthetics of differentiation, synthesis and typical provocations in each socio-cultural context.

Creating a field of aesthetic immersion from the urban context, the project Brasil Kulturwissenschaft creates an atmosphere of connection, pointing out poetic axes of proximity between the main contemporary practices and also exposing in a harmonic way aesthetics of differentiation, synthesis and typical provocations in each socio-cultural context.
The generation and promotion of this cultural interchange are intended as a continuous and expanded proposal, generating diverse connections between new diversities, comprising new paths of integration not only between the two countries involved but gradually adding new horizons and new nationalities, seeking to globalize this Binational pact.
Containing a wide and complex web of activities - exhibitions, installations, film screenings, musical shows, gastronomy, lectures, workshops, web radio, celebration - party, the project presents itself as a pioneer in the practice and application of a conceptual line of cultural interaction between these two partners and diverse nations.
