Located in Sao Paulo and founded in 2021, Carmo Johnson Projects focuses on the promotion of contemporary Brazilian art by fostering the growth of emerging artists from various regions of the country. The gallery operates under a philosophy that values ancestral wisdom and considers art a significant medium for social resistance and ecological change. By emphasizing the cultural heritage of Brazil, the space explores diverse cosmogonies and sustainable technologies that inform the work of its artists. This approach creates a bridge between traditional roots and modern artistic innovation while projecting Brazilian creativity onto a global stage through strong institutional connections.
The gallery has established a remarkable track record with artists participating in major international events like the Venice Biennale and the Sao Paulo Biennial. The program is further distinguished by collaborations with the United Nations and exhibitions at prominent institutions such as the Fondation Cartier and the Museum of Art of Sao Paulo. Works from the gallery are held in prestigious public and private collections including the Pinacoteca do Estado de Sao Paulo. Through these achievements, Carmo Johnson Projects continues to strengthen the presence of Brazilian artists within the global art discourse and the international market.
