Janelas Abertas (Open Windows) comprises great names in contemporary arts and culture in conversations that have art, politics, and life as a starting point. Organized by Eleonora Fabião and Adriana Schneider, professors at the School of Communication of the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), the book is an offshoot of a series of weekly gatherings that brought together virtually an audience around pairs of intellectuals and artists, opening the windows closed by the isolation caused by the pandemic that began in 2020. The outcome is a polyphonic and timeless mosaic of ideas about culture, society, one's role in the world, and the impact of changes on the planet on modes of existence, art, writing, and performing. There are dialogues between 42 invited participants: teachers and professors, artists, researchers, curators, masters and leaders of traditional knowledge and students, many of them with intellectual and artistic dialogues of many years: Leda Maria Martins and Marcio Abreu; Cabelo and Gabriela Gusmão; André Lepecki and José Fernando Azevedo; Carla Guagliardi and Keyna Eleison; Tania Rivera and Vladimir Safatle; Danielle Almeida and Max Jorge Hinderer Cruz; Francisco Mallmann and Miro Spinelli; Luiz Rufino and Thiago Florencio; Grace Passô and Ricardo Aleixo; Carmen Luze Silvia Soter; Arto Lindsay and Barbara Browning; Amilcar Packer and Negro Leo; Jaciara Augusto Martim and Valéria Macedo; Enrique Diaz and Mariana Lima; Luiz Camillo Osorio and Patrick Pessoa, as well as a conversation between the 12 members of the Núcleo Experimental de Performance (NEP), of the UFRJ, ending the series with the dialogue between the two organizers about the project and its effects.
