Art in Brazil 1950-2011 - Ronaldo Brito
KORTE INHOUD
In the late 1940s, there was a growing demand for a system to determine what was and what was not modern in Brazilian art. Modernism could not provide the answer; it had become too local and no longer provided any conventions or aesthetic definitions. In 1952, the Grupo Ruptura was established in São Paulo and with their rationally structured, geometrical abstract works, these artists distanced themselves from the regional, obligatory Brazilian iconography and social critique of the Modernists. The Grupo Ruptura called itself the first Brazilian avant-garde movement.This exhibition traces the evolution of Brazilian art from the 1950s until the present day and is the first exhibition in Europe to address this from a Brazilian and not a predominantly Western perspective.0Exhibition: Bozar, Brussel (12.10.2011-15.1.2012)
