Research carried out by the Institute for the Future points out that 85% of the professions that will exist in 2030 have not even been created yet. “The speed and sophistication of technological innovations are responsible for this percentage that challenges the present to imagine what the future of work and professions will be like. Transformations in professions do not occur in a linear or homogeneous way. Some regional and social markers define much of what each one ‘will be when they grow up'”, say André Couto, Maria Carla Corrochano and Paulo Pontes, who sign the curatorship.

In the exhibition, it is clear that transformations do not occur equally – gender, race, class, territory and education continue to dictate who accesses certain professions. In times of technological advancements and global challenges such as climate change and pandemics, work becomes increasingly unpredictable — but also full of new possibilities.

Accessible and provocative, the exhibition articulates past, present and future, based on data, real experiences, digital interactions and informative content about professions that are disappearing, reinventing themselves or being born in the face of new technologies and ways of life.

With an architectural project by the Gustavo Penna Arquitetos Associados office, the Memorial was installed at the site of the rupture and had the collaboration of Expomus in the constitution of the collection and in the formation of teams on the subject of sensitive memories.

The Brumadinho Memorial is dedicated to remembering and honoring each of the 272 lives, through exhibitions, collection production, research and educational actions, mobilizing dynamics of reflection on the tragedy.

With museological coordination and production by Expomus and curated by design historian Adélia Borges, the project brought together 930 items acquired over decades, since the mid-1960s, in the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and Paraná, produced by European immigrants in southern Brazil between the second half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.

The collection represents the social imaginary and daily life of German and Italian immigrants and reveals personal aspects of the domestic universe of people who sought to build a new life. The works combine the memories, techniques and customs brought by immigrants from their homeland, on the one hand, and the conditions and materials they found in the land of adoption, on the other.

Divided into ten thematic sections and a video room, the exhibition was designed to emphasize the beauty and design of pieces that were not created for the elite, but for ordinary people, who contributed to the formation of a collective memory based on cultural exchanges. By coming into contact with the collection, the public will be able to recognize elements that may be part of their own stories. This identification happens because, as it is daily, the collection can gain personal meanings for each visitor.

A part of the collection was presented at the exhibition Artifacts of the South – Legacies of German and Italian Immigration, held in 2024, in Porto Alegre, in celebration of the 200th anniversary of German immigration in Rio Grande do Sul and the 150th anniversary of Italian immigration in Brazil. The exhibition had its early closure due to the floods that hit the state.
