For Allan Szacher, co-founder and curator of Pixel Show 2022, the expectation of a reunion. It was two years without face-to-face editing. We are super excited, with that butterflies in our stomachs with emotion. We have a lot of work ahead of us to make everything work out. This is the Pixel Show of hug. After the Covid-19 pandemic, we want to meet artists again and hug people. We expect a large audience of people to enjoy, have fun and learn a lot at the festival.
According to him, this year there will be more than 45 speakers, including the conference and Sharp Talks. Szacher says that 24 workshops, dozens of live art, tattoo studios, makers and more than 150 exhibitors are planned. We have a series of XR activities, interactive art experiences and games. In this edition, we will have new exhibitors in the area of print space, that is, artists who produce drawing or graphic arts posters. It will be very beautiful and with many new artists, he evaluates.
He also comments that one of the main attractions will be the XR stadium, since it is the first time at the event and the only stadium in Brazil. People will be able to see first-hand how The Mandalorian movies, for example, are made. The studio uses the same technology as Disney. Some Brazilian DJs and musicians are starting to use it in the country, he reveals.
Regarding the growth of the festival in relation to other editions, the executive says that after two years of the pandemic, he saw the need to reduce the space for the event. He says that the festival is going to be big, as it always was, only this time, in a slightly smaller place – in Arca, in Vila Leopoldina, in the capital of São Paulo. We’re focusing on the roots of Pixel Show, which are graphic design, animation and illustration. Let’s gather the news and experiences in a more intimate space. We believe that the return in this format will be very successful with the public.
National and international speakers are confirmed. On the agenda are subjects such as illustration, graphic design, games and advertising. According to the organization, the idea will show a diversity of shapes and trends.
