Paulo Nazareth. Algebra

The publication, which accompanies the exhibition Algebra dedicated to the Brazilian artist Paulo Nazareth, presented at Punta della Dogana in Venice from March 29 to November 22, 2026, documents the exhibition journey by entering the heart of the artist's practice, whose work stems from travel, encounters, and direct experience of the territories. For years, Nazareth crossed the Americas and parts of Africa on foot, ideally following the routes traveled by migrants, precarious workers, and diasporic communities. His journeys become a form of research and testimony, a way through which the artist collects stories, objects and memories that then flow into his works.
