More than just an exhibition, “The back of the page holds the other side” by Brazilian artist Juliana Stein and presented by the Oscar Niemeyer Museum (MON), offers visitors an experience of reading and lived moments. Teachers, students, seniors, and the general public are invited to reflect on the idea of ​​life as a book: to move forward, one must always resume reading. The exhibition also marks the opening of a new gallery space, Room 12, located next to the tunnel in the museum's lower level.

More than just an exhibition, The back of the page holds the other side, by artist Juliana Stein and presented by the Oscar Niemeyer Museum (MON), offers visitors an experience of reading and lived moments. Teachers, students, people aged 60 and over, and the general public are encouraged to reflect on the idea of ​​life as a book: to move forward, one must always resume reading.

 The exhibition also inaugurates a new gallery space, Room 12, located next to one of the MON’s most emblematic areas: the iconic tunnel connecting the main building to the "Eye." More than just a new room, this space emerges as a place of possibilities, designed to embrace diverse narratives, artistic languages, and cultural experiences.

At Latin America’s largest art museum, where the architecture itself is part of the visitor experience, the new space expands the ways in which artworks, artists, and the public connect. Its prime location, in an area of ​​heavy foot traffic, turns the journey through the Museum into yet another opportunity for discovery, making art a constant invitation to look, reflect, and be enchanted.

The delivery of this gallery represents another step in the MON’s mission to offer dynamic and welcoming spaces for contemporary artistic production, valuing the diversity of expressions and fostering new connections between the permanent collection, temporary exhibitions, and visitors.

Welcome to this new chapter in the history of the Oscar Niemeyer Museum. This is yet another space that broadens horizons, inspires encounters, and reaffirms MON’s commitment to art, architecture, and culture.

MON's new exhibition gallery to open with artist Juliana Stein

The Oscar Niemeyer Museum (MON) is inaugurating a new exhibition space on August 6 with the exhibition “The Back of the Page Contains the Other Side” (O verso da página contém o outro lado) by artist Juliana Stein. It is Gallery 12, located next to the tunnel entrance on the lower level.

 The exhibition is based on the artist's book of the same name and offers visitors an experience that combines reading with lived moments. Teachers, students, people aged 60 and over, and the general public will be encouraged to reflect on the idea of ​​life as a book: to move forward, one must always return to reading.

More than just an exhibition space, the new room opens as a place of possibilities, designed to embrace diverse narratives, artistic languages, and cultural experiences.

Juliana Stein was born in Passo Fundo (RS), graduated in Psychology from UFPR in 1992, and lived for two years in Florence and Venice to study art history, watercolor techniques, and drawing. Since the late 1990s, she has dedicated herself to photography, building a career with an established reputation in Brazil and abroad. She has participated in the 55th Venice Biennale and the 29th São Paulo Biennial, and has exhibited at Crone Gallery in Berlin, ShangART Gallery in Shanghai, and Carreau du Temple in Paris.

 Her works have previously been part of other exhibitions at the Museum, such as "It's not clear until night falls," (Não está claro até que a noite caia) in 2017 and “Affinities II – Them!” (Afinidades II – Elas!) in 2022.
