The exhibition Samba Sessão will introduce viewers to the visual culture of African-descended people living in Brazil. Collected in the late-1990s by John P. Axelrod and later acquired by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the fifteen paintings and four sculptures that form the core of the exhibition were all made during the twentieth century and draw on different aspects of Afro-Brazilian life. An examination of Brazilian film and television from the 1950s to the present will also be incorporated in this exhibition.
