From August 24 until November 9, 2024, Mendes Wood DM presents, in São Paulo (BR), ARDOR AND WRATH, a solo exhibition by artist Fernando Marques Penteado. Returning to the image of a home, Marques Penteado surveys a wide array of symbols that have been kept and cherished in domestic surroundings to cast protection on their inhabitants. Spanning different geographies and traditions, from Peruvian devotional figures to Afro-Brazilian gods, ARDOR AND WRATH traces a poetic exploration of humanity’s enduring search for evocative and protective objects. Combining installations, sculptural work, drawings, and storyboards, Marques Penteado embroiders the untold histories embedded in such representations.
