Just for Brazilians ... I liked the tchurma and photo up there, but someone i know what are the criteria for which the gallery will meet to show the work, or unless you meet one email? You must be friends with who? Be nominated by whom? Receiving that award? Appear in the media? Must have photography course? Be professional? Working with photography and published work to show? What kind of work and for whom? Someone i know what are the criteria? Who knows?

Hello Marcio,

In this particular case, I do not know what were the criteria used, but Alex came to Brazil with some names on the sleeve and found others here. I can not say how they got these names (which include Garapa, collective of which I belong).

Anyway, in general terms, this is a very relevant question - what is most important to achieve recognition: a good job or good relations? Basically, I think the answer is, or should be, a combination of both - despite seeing so many bad works well, or at least mediocre, achieving success rampant - is the contemporary drama. But, just as no good wanting to be a reclusive artist and hide his own work, ideally, no use looking for anyone without having at least one job well developed.

Hug.
