This publication is a tribute to Hedone. It is the first edition of a biennial project that aims not only to reflect on the theme of pleasure but also on the dialogues it establishes with artistic practice in general. Each edition invites four artists to question, dialogue, collaborate, and confront ideas around this vast theme. What place does the hedonic experience, pleasure, occupy in the world of contemporary art? Felix Vong played with the idea of a magazine within a book, Leisure Centre. In this project, he sought to explore what we do with our free time and what that reveals about us. Tiago Rocha Costa, in Tropical Vanitas, presents an atlas that investigates the relationship between pleasure, exoticism, and curiosity. Money, the central theme, appears associated with a new interpretation of animal nature as an exotic commodity. Didirella returns to Playboy in 1984, correcting the story of Roberta Close, the first Brazilian trans muse, in a necessary gesture to reposition the word \u201ctravesti\u201d as a place of power and desire. Susana Rocha, in Leaking Bodies, explores the ambiguity of pleasure and shows how technology, functioning as both archive and trigger of memories, makes us revisit experiences that both comfort and wound.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
