Created in 1996, The Mercosul Visual Arts Biennial Foundation, based in Porto Alegre, the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, is a private, not-for-profit foundation dedicated to preparing and organising the exhibition and events that comprise the Mercosul Biennials. The Mercosul Biennial positions Brazil as an international reference point in the visual arts. In addition to promoting integration between the countries of Mercosul through art and promoting Latin American art as a whole, the Mercosul Biennial provides access to culture and art for thousands of people. The Mercosul Biennial has a different nature from other biennials in the world. Going from the regional to the global, it is founded on the economic treaty and geopolitical boundaries of the countries that make up the Mercosul. In this sense the Mercosul Biennial takes on a strongly symbolic and affirmative dimension of the potential of Latin American nations as a whole. The Mercosul Biennial proposes legitimisation of these countries’ identities in the global arena, without neglecting to establish relations with global contemporary art. In another sense, the Mercosul Biennial model is unusual because it prioritises school audiences. A considerable share of both human and financial resources is invested in education projects for each of the Mercosul Biennial exhibitions. Associating sponsors and co-workers with the best practices of social responsibility, the Mercosul Biennial recognizes education and democratic access to the visual arts as concrete instruments for the practice of citizenship and constructing a fairer society of solidarity. It has developed a range of projects to offer opportunities for the social and cultural formation of its visitors.” CONDITION: Very Good+.

(Click here to view all of our auctions) Shipping and Payment Information Shipping : DOMESTIC Domestic Media Mail shipping, including Delivery Confirmation and Insurance, is standard. This applies to any address in the US and Puerto Rico, as well as to APO addresses. Media Mail, available only for domestic shipping, is trucked to its destination, and shipped by boat to Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, On the average it takes 3 to 10 days to arrive, depending on the distance and the vagaries of the US Postal Service. Shipments to Alaska, Hawaii, APO and other off-shore addresses take longer to arrive. During the pre-Christmas season, Media Mail is subject to delays. When filling out the Ebay Detailed Seller Ratings, please keep in mind that the sometime slow arrival is due to the performance of the Postal Service and not to any tardiness on the part of the seller. For expedited domestic mailing, Priority Mail shipping can be arranged at an additional cost. For most books, we charge between two and nine dollars for this service, including delivery confirmation and insurance. For heavy sets or high-value books, the charge may be higher. INTERNATIONAL For international shipping, we urge bidders to request quotes of shipping costs before bidding. We will also specify international shipping options and prices after the conclusion of the auction. We will try to provide a range of options but buyers should be aware that all shipments are via air mail and shipping of heavy books can be expensive. COMBINED SHIPPING For international transactions, combined shipping of multiple lots can substantially reduce postage. This is especially the case for M-Bag shipments of up to 11 lbs and for multiple volumes that will fit into a single Priority Mail flat rate box. For the above options, the postage rate is fixed independently of the weight. INSURANCE All of our domestic shipments are fully insured. Payment : No credit cards except through PayPal.
