Gravura e modernidade

The exhibition presents 201 prints by 54 artists, thus creating a broad panorama of the production of prints during the first years of modernity in Brazil. It is the result of a research that has been developed for years with the collection of the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo, that comprehends more than three thousand engravings. The curator Carlos Martins selected works created between the 1920s and 60s, when the new perspectives for the country, symbolized by the inauguration of Brasília, and the multiple paths that modern art proposed caused clashes that went far beyond those between figuration and abstraction. The Modernism from the 1920s and its ulterior developments stimulated the production of engravings, that becomes a usual practice in Brazilian art, not only contributing with the increase of the existing repertoire, but also with the diffusion of visual arts in a moment of increased urbanization and industrialization.
