GAG - Global Art Group


In order to purchase some special tiles for the work in progress, C38 made a very quick visit in Sao Paulo last week and had the pleasure to meet some old friends.
In Vila Romana, rua Tito 79 a very charming warehouse is the Head Quarter of GAG (www.gag.art.br), a group of global artists which mainly comes from the theatre company Phila 7, who has been our guest during the autumn season.


The place itself is extraordinary, being an old design shop with hundreds of authentic chairs , tables and sofas, with an open space with palm trees and bright colors on the walls. Rubens Velloso and Marisa Riccitelli have been very kind in welcoming C38 and introduced the place and the people.

The feeling is of being in a factory of art and creativity, where from one room you can hear some music rehearsal, and from the other some serious talks about Mallu Magalhaes, the last brazilian young popstar. Gag concentrates them all: theatre, cinema, design, acting, lighting, music, video, dance, performances and a lot of great persons that are gathering there.


We hope to have some GAG members soon at C38, we ll always be ready to support their projects and have a good laugh with them. Sincere affection and respect from all C38
