#Repost @deaconnectcult #CCsport Ti presento: Famosa por suas paisagens belíssimas e suas águas mornas, Morro de São Paulo também é um destino certo para quem ama se exercitar e leva a sério os esportes. Por sua natureza acidentada, há várias modalidades esportivas que são desenvolvidas por lá. Se você pretende se jogar das alturas, nada melhor que a TIROLESA; se pretende conhecer a vida marinha, MERGULHO; se gosta de dominar técnicas náuticas e direção dos ventos, joguem-se na VELA e KITESURF; se quer explorar a região, poderão fazer CAVALGADAS e CAMINHADAS; o SURF é bem quisto na região com campeonatos bem animados. Sobretudo, há outras modalidades esportivas que animam bastante a vida dos turistas como o FUTEBOL, FUTEVÔLEI, VÔLEI, FRESCOBOL, CAPOEIRA, DANÇA, YÔGA... Bem, há inúmeras modalidades, basta vocês escolherem. Que tal planejar sua viagem conosco? We are CONNECT CULT!

Great new press in Artslant Berlin! They included a nice chunk of info about the NCAA’s participation in Contesting/Contexting Sport: to reclaim the field with art and activism at NGBK in Berlin! 

One quote from an interview with New Craft Artists in Action team captain Maria Molteni : 

New Craft Artists in Action also addresses the gap between the purported goals of big sporting events and their execution. Installed in the nGbK courtyard, Anarchy Acronym asks visitors to rethink the names of often-corrupt sporting institutions, “occupying” their abbreviations. The works themselves mimic the advertising banners circling sporting arenas and visitors are asked to write new meanings for their acronyms in chalk. “We’d like to reveal what players and viewers actually value in athletics that isn't about capitalism, corruption and power,” says the artist, who founded the NCAA—the “New Craft Artists in Action” collective—in 2010.

Check out the article to hear more about our work in the show and an amazing group of international artists working with sport.

New Craft Artists in Action are pleased to be included among an amazing grouping of international artists for an exhibit opening in Berlin tomorrow!

Contesting/Contexting Sport 2016: Reclaim the Field with Art and Activism

(Queer and Feminist Sport Exhibition and Program)

July 9- August 28 @ nGbK Gallery + Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien

(Above photo: Site specific installation painted by Maria Molteni for CCsport at NGBK, Berlin)

About the Exhibition :

In the field of sport, discrimination is present as in hardly any other social sub-system. Gender-specific categories, that are often based on the principle of heteronormative exclusion, prevail. In the context of the upcoming mega-events –the 2016 Olympic Games and the (men’s) European Football Championship– critical voices from the field of sport will be linked with creative interventions at the nGbK. The exhibition combines artistic positions with activist strategies - creating counterproposals to the consumer-oriented and nationalistic/indentitarian competition energy. Accompanying events offer a platform for emergence of queer solidarities and alternative concepts going beyond sport.
