Notes on the CAPACETE proposal for the 29th São Paulo Biennial
+ CAPACETE entretenimentos and Fundação Bienal de São Paulo combine to develop a project associated with the 29th edition of the Biennial. Edition whose title is the verse "There is always a glass of sea for a man to sail" written by the poet Jorge de Lima, and is scheduled to occur, as an exhibition, between September 21 and December 12, 2010 in Ibirapuera Park. This shared project, however, will start well before that, and it will make use of strategies and places that expand the format and space commonly associated with an art biennial.

+ As part of the group of actions and events that embody the 29th Bienal de São Paulo, CAPACETE proposes to be, from March 2010, a "space-time" for multi-disciplinary convergence , from the format of the "lounge conversations." This format, in the 19th century, allowed different personalities and upper bourgeoisie professionals to exchange information from their various trips, research and activities. In the era of travel, however, John Cage brought the "hall" of the dining room to the kitchen. And today the "hall" happens in the virtual world of the net.

+ CAPACETE assumes that the most important moments happen in the "in-between spaces” and "in-between times" and so,they present themselves in fluctuating and unstable ways, therefore being unpredictable and uncontrollable. May the breakfast be the central forum for convergence of ideas and exchanges?, Or has it always been the nerve centre for exchange? How to build perspectives for exchange of knowledge in a non-linear and non-hierarchical way, continuously?

+ CAPACETE went through several restructuring phases, questioning the function of the "residence" format within the local context, adapting to the demands of increasingly complex projects and inserting them into different logics and localities. To this end CAPACETE manages two offices in different operational senses, one in Rio, the other in São Paulo.

+ Since the start in 1998, CAPACETE instigates and supports the various researches conducted by their artists / curators / critics, guests, inserting them into the logic of the unpredictable. What interests us is this notion of an unstable system generating uncertainties and, therefore, causing possible connections, as improbable as they may seem.

+ We have the purpose of exposing and producing unpublished conceptual and contextual works, covering multiple artistic strategies. We document our activities and serve as a starting point for the self-managing of a group of national and international artists.

+ It is of our greatest interest to represent and allow for a continuation not only language wise, serving also as a platform for the construction of the own history of the artist, documenting production and bringing it to the general public.

+ The agency is the content itself. CAPACETE aims to facilitate and to create productions that are bursting with the idea of a permanent space. The interest is the space between the gallery and the city as urban history, in its multiple manifestations.

+ As an invited organism joining the body of actions of the 29th Bienal de São Paulo, CAPACETE functions as a discursive platform of the curatorial proposal, building a lively dialogue with its participants.
