Curated by Claudinei Roberto da Silva, Mãos: 35 anos da Mão Afro-Brasileira offers a fresh perspective on the 1988 exhibition, featuring both original pieces and contemporary updates from popular, academic, modern, and contemporary artists.

Running until March 2024, Mãos: 35 anos da Mão Afro-Brasileira was simultaneously hosted by MAM São Paulo and Museu Afro Brasil Emanoel Araujo. The exhibition was curated by Claudinei Roberto da Silva—a curator, artist, member of the MAM Arts Commission, and guest curator for the MAB Emanoel Araujo.

Mãos: 35 anos da Mão Afro-Brasileira brings together paintings, prints, photographs, sculptures, and documents from over 30 Afro-Brazilian artists, including popular, academic, modern, and contemporary figures such as Mestre Didi, Rommulo Vieira Conceição, Rosana Paulino, and Rubem Valentim, among others. The exhibition revisits and builds upon the legacy of A Mão Afro-Brasileira, first held at MAM in 1988—the year marking the centenary of the abolition of slavery in Brazil—with Emanoel Araujo as curator.
