Almandrade, sin dejarse devorar por la provincia, produce con su arte un saber sobre la imposibilidad de consistencia de un sistema de signos. Haroldo Cajazeira, Poeta. Almandrade, artist, poet and architect resident in Salvador, Bahia, was a member of the group of artists creator of the Poema/Processo movement and one of the founders of the Grupo de Estudos de Linguagem da Bahia, who edited the Semiótica magazine in 1974. Since the 1970s he produces work geared towards conceptualism and minimalist aesthetics, having a great part of it transiting through national postal services – as in the case of the sealed envelope which he sent to his friends in the year 1973, where the word inside could only be revealed when it was held against the light (a classic method used by spies), where one could read “psiu” (or “shush”), a reference to the political system’s control over discourse at the time of the Brazilian dictatorship.
