VENUE

We are pleased to announce that the official venue for our conference will be, indeed, as originally planned, (the theater of) the Cultural Centre of Federal Justice. The building is located in the very heart of downtown Rio de Janeiro and it is an attraction in itself. It is a historical heritage building, which was first the Archiepiscopal Palace of Brazil and, then, was acquired by the federal government to be the Brazilian Supreme Court Palace. The Supreme Court functioned there from 1909 up to 1960, when Brasilia was built and Rio lost the status of capital city of the country. The building was designed by Spanish architect Adolfo Morales de los Rios, has stained glasses from Belgian artist François Frank Urban and Italo-Brazilian artist Gastão Formenti and hardwood doors hand-carved by Brazilian artist Manuel Ferreira Tunes, just to cite some of the artists that contributed with the various exquisite architectural details of the building.
Due to the pandemics and other personal issues of some of the speakers, our conference will have a hybrid format to accommodate everyone’s needs and make everyone’s participation viable. Although, having the in-person venue there, it will be strategic, as the area is accessible by subway, buses, trolley, cabs, vans, Uber (and other platforms alike) and it even has a rack of rental public bikes just in front of it. Also, the building has as its neighbors other important historical heritage buildings as the National Library, the National Museum of Fine Arts, The Municipal Theater and The Rio de Janeiro City Council Palace.
Even if the pandemic situation is controlled in Rio, we will have to use masks inside the theater. Although, during the coffee breaks, which will happen in an open air area, we will be free of masks. Also, only people with two jabs will be allowed in the audience.
