arte popular brazil artists rediscovered 1234746454

Earlier this spring, artist Julia Isídrez led a guided tour at São Paulo's Gomide & Co. gallery for a joint exhibition with Maria Lira. The show highlights two artists from different generations and mediums—Lira from Brazil (painting) and Isídrez from Paraguay (sculpture, featured in the 2024 Venice Biennale)—who both engage Indigenous and Afro-Indigenous traditions from a contemporary perspective. Gallerist Thiago Gomide rejects labels like 'folk' or 'popular,' insisting it is simply an art exhibition. The article profiles a network of Brazilian dealers, including Vilma Eid of Galeria Estação and Antonio Almeida of Almeida & Dale, who have worked to revive interest in arte popular, a category historically applied to self-taught, Indigenous, and Black artists.

Brazil’s Modernist Art Gets a Celebration in London

The Royal Academy of Arts in London is hosting "Brasil! Brasil! The Birth of Modernism," a major exhibition featuring over 130 works by 10 Brazilian modernist artists from the first half of the 20th century, plus landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx. Curated by Adrian Locke, who has Brazilian heritage, the show includes iconic pieces by Tarsila do Amaral, Candido Portinari, and Alfredo Volpi, alongside lesser-known artists like Afro-Brazilian painter Rubem Valentim. The exhibition revisits a historic 1944 show at the same institution, which was the first to present Brazilian modernist painting in the U.K.
