| Summary: | The text of journalist and anthropologist Bruno Albertim is fundamental to understand the thought and aesthetic action of Pernambuco modernism and its intrinsic links with landscape tradition, echinocial light and the strength of the regions popular art, which structures the foundations of national cultural identity. From pioneering artists such as Cícero Dias and Vicente do Rego Monteiro, to contemporary artists, who make Recife an expressive national art hub, the author discusses the long history of Pernambuco art and the brilliant trajectories of its most representative artists, sometimes poorly understood, showing that the art produced in Pernambuco throughout the twentieth century has never abandoned its postulates: integrate tradition and modernity, and value figurative elements as reference points of the regions sensitivity, which mirrors the ways of being, seeing and feeling the world. |
