Starts today (11) the Literary Festival of the Periphery, Flup 2022, which, in its 11th edition, occupies the Museum of Art of Rio (MAR) and the Museum of Afro-Brazilian History and Culture (Muhcab), both in the central region of the city of Rio de Janeiro. The event runs until the 18th of February.
In the year in which the centenary of the 1922 Modern Art Week is celebrated, Flup celebrates Black Modernism and recovers the cultural effervescence of Rio de Janeiro in the 1920s with a program honoring Pixinguinha, Lima Barreto and Josephine Baker. As a tradition, Flup will officially open the event with a flight of biodegradable balloons at 12:00, in Praça Mauá, which will be glued to the letter of Tenderfrom Pixinguinha.
Among the highlights are the tables “Transatlantic Flows”, with Congolese writer Alain Mabanckou and Kim Butler (11th at 7pm), and “A Luminous Experience – Jazz, Prohibition and Exile in Paris”, which will have the presence of writers and researchers Anaïs Flechet and Jeffrey G. Ogbar (12th, at 7pm).
Flup also brings shows by Teresa Cristina, Amaro Freitas and Majur, as well as exhibitions about Pixinguinha, at MAR, and another about Lima Barreto, at Muhcab. With an extensive children’s program, Flup honors Sonia Rosa, the first writer of books for black children, with Sarau nas Alturas, in which a balloon will rise to the skies of Praça Mauá with storytelling, in addition to the dance of Elis Mc and Samba das Rosalinas with the Curumim Space for children.
Flup 22 is presented by the Ministry of Tourism, City Hall of Rio de Janeiro and the Municipal Secretary of Culture. It has the master sponsorship of Shell, sponsorship of Instituto Cultural Vale and Itaú, through the Federal Culture Incentive Law, and Globo, through the Municipal Cultural Incentive Law – ISS Law, and the Carioca Promotion Program – Foca . It also has support from the Ford Foundation and the Ibirapitanga Institute, in partnership with the Rio de Janeiro Museum of Art, the Museum of Afro-Brazilian History and Culture, Sesc RJ and Grupo Pensar.
