Inhotim: Check out the May schedule

Inhotim’s May program brings together long-term exhibitions, educational activations, collection talks, and initiatives that strengthen connections with Brumadinho. In the exhibition program, visitors can experience shows that explore contemporary art, memory, territory, ancestry, and spirituality, such as Dupla cura, by Dalton Paula — the artist’s first panoramic exhibition in Brazil; Tororoma, by davi de jesus do nascimento; Contraplano, by Lais Myrrha; and Ru Jub’ulik Achik’ – Aromas de um sonho, by Edgar Calel.

The exhibitions occupy galleries and outdoor spaces throughout the Institute, creating dialogues between art, landscape, history, collectivity, and diverse cosmologies.

Among the month’s activations, the Traveling Atelier invites visitors to experience creative practices across different areas of the museum and botanical garden. The program includes Between Leaves and Knowledge: The Science of Axé Plants on May 1, 2, 3, 7, 28, 30, and 31; Museum Atelier on May 9, 10, 14, 16, and 17; as well as activities during National Museum Week, such as Photo-Fabulation on May 21 and Forró at the Square on May 23 and 24. Some editions include accessibility resources such as Brazilian Sign Language interpretation and bilingual mediation upon request.

The Collection Talks are also part of the program, promoting guided encounters in galleries, gardens, and outdoor artworks. In May, the themes include Inhotim 20 Years: Marilá Dardot Edition, Brazilian Art at Inhotim: Paulo Nazareth Edition, The Contemporary at Inhotim: Continente/Nuvem Edition, and a special National Museum Week edition featuring Álisson Valentim, museologist at Inhotim.

The month also features initiatives focused on education and local territory. The project Decentralizing Access 2026 hosts virtual meetings on May 4, 16, 23, and 30, addressing contemporary collections and current debates. In Brumadinho, the Institute takes part in the Festival Sabor das Brumas on May 30, offering registration for the Nosso Inhotim program, and hosts the second edition of the Experiência Brumadinho fair on May 9, celebrating local producers, artists, cultural leaders, and traditional knowledge from the region.
