São Paulo’s Biennial Walks Off the Beaten Path, Humanity Gets a New Map

Not every journey needs a road—at least, not at the 36th São Paulo Biennial. Inspired by Conceição Evaristo’s evocative poetry, the 2025 edition invites visitors to explore what it means to be human when the usual paths are left behind. This year’s curatorial team, led by Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung and joined by voices from across continents, is setting the stage for a Biennial that’s more than an art show—it’s a meeting ground for ideas. The event will revolve around three guiding threads: reimagining how we experience space and time, seeing ourselves through the eyes of others, and creating spaces for true dialogue. With an extended run and free admission, the Biennial opens its doors wider than ever, aiming to make art—and the questions it raises—accessible to all. Sometimes, the most meaningful journeys begin where the pavement ends. #SaoPauloBiennial #ContemporaryArt #CulturalDialogue #Culture
