Escola de Artes Visuais in Parque Lage, a beautiful Academy (small white square) in the middle of the jungle!

Nice lecture hall at the Escola de Artes Visuais in Parque Lage

More than 130 people showed up for the lecture! The Arts Academy reminded me of the Antwerp Academy.

In Rio I was invited by a few organizations to lecture in the beautiful arts school of Parque Lage. The building looked like the Antwerp Academy but it’s located in the jungle! Luisa Marcier, director of the Rio Fashion Museum which opens in 2014 kindly introduced me to the crowd. It was a lively evening with a lot of debate on the future of Brazilian fashion. Today we’ll see some shows at Rio Fashion Week. But first off to the Copacabana!
