Frontiers: A Journey Through the Americas

Born and raised in Brazil, Cleverson moved to New York in 1996 to pursue his career as an international artist. Nine years later in 2005, he took unusual routes to his hometown in Brazil, across the North, Central, and South Americas. In 38 days, he crossed 12 countries almost entirely by bus: the United States, Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brazil. The exhibition, entitled Frontiers: A Journey Through the Americas, is based on this trip that challenges both geographical and psychological limits.

While incorporating documentary materials such as photography, video, notes and interviews, the exhibition alludes to an old fashioned narrative. It seems that Cleverson creates a character to tell his story as a traveler. The contents of Frontiers witnessed by this character are full of unknown lands and unexpected, unplanned events. It is, however, felt less romantic and heroic than expected. It evokes invisible barriers among the Americas while the character encounters and interacts with the locals, indigenous peoples, and other travelers.
