Fuckin’ Globo 2020: In the discomfort zone

Keeping with their motto “From the people to the people… Fuck institutions”, Angolan project Fuckin’ Globo held their 6th exhibition entitled “In the discomfort zone” in Luanda's former hotel Globo this month. Challenging the limits of their spaces of artistic language, this edition’s artists seized installation, film, video and performance as ways to analyze Angola’s recent economic and political past and renegotiate new social, moral, religious, political, economic and sexual configurations capable of reaching new audiences. The artist selection includes Kiluanji Kia Henda, Thó Simões, Ery and Evan Claver, Verkron, Toy Boy, Lola Keyezua, Indira Grandê, Mussunda N’zombo, Muamby Wassaky, Kapela, Iris Buchholz Chocolate, Yola Balanga, Flávio Cardoso, Rui Magalhães and Pedro Pires.
