    the armory show september 9–12, 2021 jacob k. javits convention center new york, usa On the occasion of The Armory Show 2021, Nara Roesler is pleased to present a selection of recent works by South American artists, with punctuations by European artists, creating a dialogue between different regional and generational practices. The presentation foregrounds the artists’ echoing yet diverging approaches to understanding the limits of abstraction, figuration, and dimensionality, offering a formal and procedural conversation between works, that aims to explore how artists have consistently grappled to come to terms with certain pillars of artistic processes and cannons. armory online Elian Almeida Maria Auxiliadora da Silva (Vogue Brasil), 2021 [detail] rodolpho parigi ‘My work grows from a conflict between reality and fiction. From drawings to paintings and performance works, I have explored the possibilities of a self-imagined sci-fi world inhabited by hybrid or androgynous figures of strange beauty and shapes that come to the surface like living bodies that could breath or move.

Docente do curso de Fisioterapia pelo Centro Universitário Maurício de Nassau, Maceió, Alagoas, Brasil. 2. Docente do curso de Enfermagem pela Universidade Estadual de Ciências da Saúde, Maceió, Alagoas, Brasil Abstract Objective: To analyze the correlation between weather, population size and cases of COVID-19 in the capitals of Brazil. Methods : All confirmed cases of COVID-19 infection, from the first confirmed case from February 26 until May 01, 2020 were included. For weather variables, average temperature (°C), dew point (°C), average humidity (%) and wind speedResults (m s-1) were extracted from the Instituto de Meteorologia database. The population size of each capital was used as a control variable, with data obtained from Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística. Spearman rank correlation tests were utilized to examine the correlation between variables. : TheConclusion analysis showed a significant and strong positive correlation between the total cases of COVID-19 and the population size (p<0,01). There was a significant positive correlation with the average humidity of the air and cumulative cases (p<0,05). There was no significant correlation with other climate variables. : Our results confront some expectations commented around the world about a possible seasonality of COVID-19 during periods of low humidity and can assist government and health authorities in decision making to control the pandemic.

Methods: From October 2010 to February 2011 stool samples from 100 children enrolled in a government daycare center in the municipality of São José do Rio Preto, in the state of São Paulo, were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 246 bacteria were isolated in 99% of the fecal samples; 129 were in the diarrheal group and 117 in the non-diarrheal group. Seventy- three strains of Escherichia coli were isolated, 19 of Enterobacter, one of Alcaligenes and one of Proteus. There were 14 cases of mixed colonization with Enterobacter and E. coli. Norovirus and Astrovirus were detected in children with clinical signs suggestive of diarrhea. These viruses were detected exclusively among children residing in urban areas. All fecal samples were negative for the presence of the rotavirus species A and C. The presence of Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba coli, Endolimax nana and hookworm was observed. A significant association was found between food consumption outside home and daycare center and the presence of intestinal parasites.

TOPOGRAPHY The terrain of Brazil is mostly flat to rolling lowlands in north; some plains, hills, mountains, and a narrow coastal belt. Approximately 60% of the Amazon rainforest is contained in Brazil, what comes to 3.300.000 square kilometer. This rainforest is located in the Northwest of Brazil. The two maps below show some of the key characteristics like mountains, forests, cities, coastal line, etc. of Brazil. Figure 2: States and federal district of Brazil Figure 1: Major centers and points of interest Brazil has fourteen cities with more than one million inhabitants, these cities are because of historical reasons mostly located near the coast. Most of these cities can be found in figure 2. The three largest cities of Brazil are São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Salvador. (Oak, 2010) The natural resources of Brazil according to the CIA World Factbook, which uses the definition of natural resources as a country's mineral, petroleum, hydropower, and other resources of commercial importance, are: Bauxite, gold, iron ore, manganese, nickel, phosphates, platinum, tin, uranium, petroleum, hydropower and timber.

  • Convergent Agrarian Frontiers in the Settlement of Mato Grosso, Brazil
    Convergent Agrarian Frontiers in the Settlement of Mato Grosso, Brazil Lisa Rausch University of Wisconsin-Madison Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies Abstract: The heterogeneity of development in the contemporary southern Amazon may be linked to different settlement experiences on the frontier. Three main types of productive settlement have been identified, including official colonization, private colonization, and spontaneous settlement, based on the differentiated motivations and resources of participants in these settlements. Not only did these different types of frontiers advance concurrently in the Amazon, but these frontiers sometimes converged in one location. The interaction of settlers from different groups sometimes created conflict, but also advanced the process of territorialization of the Amazon. This position is illustrated via a case study of one municipality at which three groups of settlers converged. Ultimately, though local popular history privileges the role of one of the three groups in bringing about the founding of the municipality and the development of a successful local economy, these achievements were only possible due to the different resources that each group brought to the settlement. Introduction he heterogeneity of the Brazilian Amazon frontier experience is just beginning to be understood. Early researchers set out structuralist expectations of accelerating resource Texploitation, capital accumulation by a relative few as land holdings were systematically consolidated, and the enlistment of the peasantry into wage labor as the agricultural frontier advanced into the Amazon.1 A linear progression toward the homogenization of Amazonian places has not occurred, however, even as highly capitalized industrial agriculture has continued to advance in the region.2 Today, the Amazon is a tapestry of highly globalized and globalizing cities, relic frontier towns, marginal extractive landscapes, and panoramas of modern, industrial- scale agricultural production with a range of landholding sizes.

Compare how the location, climate, and natural resources of Mexico and Venezuela affect where people live and how they trade. LOCATION, CLIMATE, AND NATURAL RESOURCES OF MEXICO Location of Mexico Mexico is the second-largest country by size and population in Latin America. It is the largest Spanish-speaking country in the world. The country is located south of the United States. On the west is the Pacific Ocean, and on the east are the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. Mexico’s location between the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea allows it the opportunity to trade. There are seven major seaports in Mexico.
