Works by Gustavo Caboco are now in the collections of the Denver Art Museum in the USA and KADIST, based in France and the USA.
Kanau-Kyba: Kaminhos da pedra (2019-2021), commissioned by the 34th Bienal de São Paulo, has become part of the collection of the Denver Art Museum. The film features Pedra do Bendegó, a meteorite found in 1748 that survived the fire at the National Museum in Rio de Janeiro in 2018. In it, Bendegó acts as a temporal link, uniting different historical moments in the narrative that moves from the origins of the Wapichana People to the smoldering ruins of the museum.
In turn, Pedra engole peixe ou boca da terra (2022), acquired by KADIST, was conceived in relation to the landscape around the Casa Museu Eva Klabin in Rio de Janeiro, on the occasion of the 25th Respiração project. The work is based on the observation of a mountain cut for the construction of the Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas and operates inversions and associations between the rock and the body of water.
