The establishment of artistic work partnerships with artists interested in developing projects to be featured in exhibitions and publications had become one of the most marked characteristics of Galeria Brito Cimino, prior even to its official opening in 1997. This type of work brought together Luciana Brito and Fabio Cimino who up to then had been engaged in institutional and commercial practice, respectively and led to the creation of a partnership that is indisputably linked to the broader context of professionalization of Brazilian art in the 1980s and 90s. Projects of institutional nature ended up creating longer-lasting relationships with represented artists of historical renown, such as Geraldo de Barros and Waldemar Cordeiro. The partnerships entered with peer gallery owners and artists with whom Brito and Cimino had become close as early as in the 1980s confirmed the feasibility of creating a gallery to bring artistic activities under its roof and disseminate them in the context of the contemporary art market. To this end, the frequent attendance of Luciana Brito and Fabio Cimino at leading international art fairs played a fundamental role, as well as the opening of the actual physical space of the gallery in São Paulo. Right from the beginning, important solo and group exhibitions were organized at Brito Cimino's original location, where works were installed that had been especially commissioned. Giving continuity to the initial drive that yielded the creation of an architectural space especially designed to showcase artworks, Galeria Brito Cimino commemorates its first 10 years of activities with a major renovation of its facilities. This expansion will not only boost the enhancement of the gallery's work agenda that includes simultaneous exhibitions and collaborative associations in the field of art education, but it will also allow the increase in number of its represented artists. As regards its mission, Brito Cimino continues to prioritize its ongoing effort to back artistic production within a context that, rather than being restrained by indubitably relevant commercial aspects, also facilitates the autonomy of art making processes and their association with permanent institutional support.
