Jonathas de Andrade

Jonathas de Andrade uses photography, installation and video to traverse collective memory and history, making use of strategies that shuffle fiction and reality. De Andrade collects and catalogues architecture, images, texts, life stories and recomposes a personal narrative of the past.

De Andrade has participated at the Mercosul Biennial in Porto Alegre, New Museum Triennial in New York, 29th São Paulo Biennial, Istanbul Biennial, Lyon Biennial, Performa15 in New York, Bienal de São Paulo, and in SITE Santa Fe. Jonathas de Andrade's work was also included in Under the Same Sun: Art from Latin America Today at the Guggenheim Museum in New York in 2014, Question the Wall Itself at the Walker Art Center and Unfinished Conversations: New Work from the Collection at The Museum of Modern Art in New York.
