Geraldo de Barros: Isso
Geraldo de Barros (1923-1998) foi um dos maiores representantes do modernismo no Brasil. Assimilou os princípios da Escola Superior de Design de Ulm (Alemanha), trouxe-os para a América do Sul e incentivou muitos de seus colegas se unirem ao movimento da arte concreta. Cultivou contatos com a vanguarda artística europeia e, no Brasil, foi um fomentador pioneiro, experimentando novas tendências, como o happening e a arte pop. Este livro apresenta um panorama da vida e obra do artista, organizado cronologicamente e contemplando todas as vertentes de sua produção com ênfase na fotografia. Este ebook traz imagens que são melhor visualizadas em tablets. Geraldo de Barros (1923-1998) was o...
Aberto open
Criado pela artista Fabiana de Barros em 1998, quando participava de um intercâmbio artístico entre a Suíça, o Brasil e a França, em João Pessoa, Paraíba, o Fiteiro Cultural tinha a intenção de ser um espaço ideal, capaz de se transformar em ateliê, palco, espaço de exposições ou local propício para descanso, leitura e reflexão. A segunda edição deste livro reinterpreta e atualiza a obra que lhe deu nome. O livro segue fortalecido em sua função de registrar, analisar e exibir a memória visual da estrutura e do impacto do Fiteiro Cultural nas cidades por onde passou e nas pessoas que se dedicaram a refletir sobre ele.
Forming Abstraction
Art produced outside hegemonic centers is often seen as a form of derivation or relegated to a provisional status. Forming Abstraction turns this narrative on its head. In the first book-length study of postwar Brazilian art and culture, Adele Nelson highlights the importance of exhibitionary and pedagogical institutions in the development of abstract art in Brazil. By focusing on the formation of the São Paulo Biennial in 1951; the early activities of artists Geraldo de Barros, Lygia Clark, Waldemar Cordeiro, Hélio Oiticica, Lygia Pape, and Ivan Serpa; and the ideas of critics like Mário Pedrosa, Nelson illuminates the complex, strategic processes of citation and adaption of both local and international forms. The book ultimately demonstrates that Brazilian art institutions and abstract artistic groups—and their exhibitions of abstract art in particular—served as crucial loci for the articulation of societal identities in a newly democratic nation at the onset of the Cold War.
Making Art Concrete
In the years after World War II, artists in Argentina and Brazil experimented with geo-metric abstraction and engaged in lively debates about the role of the artwork in society. Some of these artists used novel synthetic materials, creating objects that offered an alternative to established traditions in painting—proposing that these objects become part of everyday, concrete reality. Combining art historical and scientific analysis, experts from the Getty Conservation Institute and Getty Research Institute are collaborating with the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, a world-renowned collection of Latin American art, to research the formal strategies and material decisions of these ar...
Spatial Orders, Social Forms
A fascinating look at modernist urban planning and spatial theories in Brazilian 20th-century art and architecture Exploring the intersections among art, architecture, and urbanism in Brazil from the 1920s through the 1960s, Adrian Anagnost shows how modernity was manifested in locally specific spatial forms linked to Brazil's colonial and imperial past. Discussing the ways artists and architects understood urban planning as a tool to reorganize the world, control human action, and remedy social problems, Anagnost offers a nuanced account of the seeming conflict between modernist aesthetics and a predominately poor and historically disenfranchised urban public, with particular attention to regionalist forms of urban development. Organized as a series of case studies of projects such as Flávio de Carvalho's performative urbanism, the construction of the Ministry of Education and Public Health building, Lina Bo and Pietro Maria Bardi's efforts to modernize Brazilian museums, and Hélio Oiticica's interstitial works, this study is full of groundbreaking insights into the ways that modernist theories of urbanism shaped the art and architecture of 20th-century Brazil.
New Perspectives on Brazilian Constructivism
Going beyond current readings of Concretism and Neoconcretism, this book shows how these movements were bred in the Brazilian circuit, after adapting international constructivism to the cultural conditions of the country. Thus, based on a systematic investigation in the archives of newspapers of that period, this book explores the premises through which Neoconcretism became organized and gained momentum in a series of debates between the avant-gardes of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro—debates that focused on the visual arts and poetry as objects of intense aesthetic experimentation and prospective transformation. They offer a guide through what seems to be a maze of contradictory theories an...
