About Mercado Moderno

Expertise/ Midcentury and Contemporary Brazilian design

One of the foremost Design galleries in Brazil, Mercado Moderno has been a key player in the recent global newfound appreciation for modern Brazilian furniture. After two decades of ostracism, there came a historical revisiting of the work produced between 1940 and 1970, coinciding with the gallery’s 2001 foundation. Since then, the enterprise called for arduous investigative work, still the daily routine for its founders, Alberto Vicente and Marcelo Vasconcellos, consolidated as renowned specialists on this subject, by being responsible for recording and disseminating their knowledge, through the organization and support of key exhibitions and publications on the topic.
