 containing Leonnilsons' Sua montanha interior protetora and 3 more fantastic works



from a little window you can see Valeska Soares

and a great piece by Carla Zachagnini that involves a series of stamps made from texts on Latin America, which have appeared in the local press. Everybody at Musac will use these stamps over the coming months to infiltrate the piece out to the world.
