Caio Reisewitz’s research takes photography as its main medium. Through technical and thematic refinement, his work evinces an interest in human action and its social and political effects, whether in the natural space or the architectural space. While his photographic technique highlights the dramaticity among shapes, colors and textures, his artistic poetics constructs a nearly dreamlike aesthetic repertoire. These aspects establish a dichotomous dialogue between the real (that which is characteristic of the photographic record) and the chimerical (our own repertoires).
With a degree in visual arts from Mainz University (Germany), Caio Reisewitz has an advanced degree in visual poetics and an MA from the University of São Paulo. The biennials he has participated in include: 23rd Sydney Biennale (2022), Biennale des Arts 2022 de Nice, France, the 26th Bienal de São Paulo (2004), the 51st Biennale di Venezia (2005), in Italy, and the Nanjing Biennale (2010), in China. His work has also been shown at the Fundació Mies van der Rohe (2024, Barcelona, Spain), 22nd DongGang International Photo Festival, Dong Gang Museum of Photograph (2024, Coreia do Sul); Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Castilla y León (MUSAC) (2024, 2023 and 2010, Spain); Instituto Moreira Salles, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo (2010); the Ella Fontanals-Cisneros Collection Miami (2005, 2010, USA); the International Center of Photography (ICP), New York (2014, USA); the Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris (2015, France); the Pinacoteca de São Paulo (2017), as well as at Photo Shanghai (2019, China). In 2020, he released the book Altamira, based on a collection of the same name acquired by the Pinacoteca de São Paulo. His work figures in important collections such as those of the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (USA); the Fundación ARCO Madrid (Spain); the Collezione Fondazione Giovanni Guastalla (Italy); the Fond National d’Art Contemporain (France); MUSAC (Spain); the Museu de Arte Moderna (MAM) of São Paulo, of Rio de Janeiro and of Salvador (Brazil); the Musée Malraux (France); and the Pinacoteca de São Paulo.
