      The largest exhibition of Brazilian art ever presented in Canada, Tropi-X brings together more than 70 artworks by 44 artists to explore bold, evolving expressions of identity, culture, and the Canadian diaspora.

      At its heart is a rare collection of 1970s-era works donated by visionary supporters John and Elizabeth Moore: vibrant painting, sculpture, and textile works rooted in folklore, syncretic religion, popular culture, and modernist experimentation. Donated in 1985 and mostly unseen for more than three decades, these historical pieces reflect a pivotal moment in Brazilian art history—one shaped by regional diversity and Modernist transformation.

      These artworks are placed in dynamic conversation with contemporary works by 20 Brazilian-Canadian artists living across Canada, bridging past and present. The contemporary artists of Tropi-X challenge inherited narratives, offering new perspectives on belonging and cultural memory. Organized around three thematic cores—Folklore Remix, Tropics on Loop, and Syncretic Ghosts—Tropi-X offers a timely reflection on Brazilian art’s complexity and its evolving presence in Canada’s cultural landscape..
