Abstract Damage Control: Black Women's Visual Resistance in Brazil and Beyond Kanitra Shenae Fletcher, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: Moyosore Okediji Jezebels, Mammies, and Matriarchs… These labels signify racialized and gendered social constructions that transnationally pervade the lives of black women. By contextualizing black women’s artwork as visual responses to social subjugation and objectification, one can discern the (literal) materialization of black feminist epistemology through artistic production and the aesthetic concerns that drive expressive work. This thesis therefore analyzes black Brazilian artist Rosana Paulino’s work as a visual form of resistance to three major “controlling images” of black women in Brazil as sexually promiscuous, domestic laborers, and unfit mothers. Her work represents not only the Brazilian black woman’s experience; it broadens and deepens the conversation on black women’s art in Africa and its diasporas, where similar stereotypes exist. Several v of Paulino’s personal statements and artworks address subjects that parallel those made by black women artists--María Magdalena Campos-Pons, Lorna Simpson, Zanele Muholi, and Wangechi Mutu, to name a few--whose artwork is also considered in this paper.

    A Cause for Reflection: Imagining Brazil at 100 Years of Independence By Joseph M. Pendergraph Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in History August, 2015 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Marshall C. Eakin, Ph.D. Sarah E. Igo, Ph.D. “O Gigante: Vossos irmãoes na pátria nova passam tranquillos com riqueza largos annos… outro sistema de gouverno abraçam, que julgam mais propício para os humanos, porque nesse regimen, ali novo, dizem que manda simplesmente o povo.”1 “For my part I will say that, if my body leaves [Brazil], my heart stays, and that, if one day it should split, on it will be seen the words Brazil and Portugal, so intensely linked, so intimately intertwined, that it shall not be possible to separate one from the other.”2 1 Augusto de Lacerda, As duas patrias: poêma em homenagem a Portugal e Brasil por occasião do centenário da abertura dos portos brasileiros ao commércio do mundo (Porto: Oficinas do Commercio do Porto, 1908), 116 – The passage reads roughly, “The Giant: Your brothers in the new Pátria calmly live long years with richness / embracing another form of government that they believe to be more propitious for mankind / because in this new regime it is said that the people simply govern.” The timing of this quotation is key for understanding the critique. The work was published in 1908 just two years before the overthrow of the Portuguese monarchy. The decadence of the throne in the nineteenth century had led to intellectual criticism in the 1870s and republican revolts and conspiracies in the last years of the century.

  • Chapter.11.Brazilian Cdr.Cdr
    BRAZIL Chapter 11 Art, Literature and Poetry Brazil was colonized by Portugal in the middle of the 16th century. In those early times, owing to the primitive state of Portuguese civilization there, not much could be done in regard to art expression. The original inhabitants of the land, pre-Columbian Indigenous peoples, most likely produced various forms of art, but very little is known about this. Little remains, except from elaborate feather items used as body adornments by all different tribes and specific cultures like the Marajoara, who left sophisticated painted pottery. So, Brazilian art - in the Western sense of art - began in the late 16th century and, for the greater part of its evolution until early 20th century, depended wholly on European standards. 170 BRAZIL Pre-Columbian traditions Main article: Indigenous peoples in Brazil Santarém culture. Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi Bororo Indian with feather headdress and body painting 171 BRAZIL The oldest known art in Brazil is the cave paintings in Serra da Capivara National Park in the state of Piauí, dating back to c. 13,000 BC. More recent examples have been found in Minas Gerais and Goiás, showing geometric patterns and animal forms. One of the most sophisticated kinds of Pre- Columbian artifact found in Brazil is the sophisticated Marajoara pottery (c. 800–1400 AD), from cultures flourishing on Marajó Island and around the region of Santarém, decorated with painting and complex human and animal reliefs. Statuettes and cult objects, such as the small carved-stone amulets called muiraquitãs, also belong to these cultures. The Mina and Periperi cultures, from Maranhão and Bahia, produced interesting though simpler pottery and statuettes.

  • ART DECO and BRAZILIAN MODERNISM a Dissertation
    SLEEK WORDS: ART DECO AND BRAZILIAN MODERNISM A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy in Spanish By Patricia A. Soler, M.S. Washington, DC January 23, 2014 Copyright by Patricia A. Soler All rights reserved ii SLEEK WORDS: ART DECO AND BRAZILIAN MODERNISM Patricia A. Soler, M.S. Thesis advisor: Gwen Kirkpatrick, Ph.D. ABSTRACT I explore Art Deco in the Brazilian Modernist movement during the 1920s. Art Deco is a decorative arts style that rose to global prominence during this decade and its proponents adopted and adapted the style in order to nationalize it; in the case of Brazil, the style became nationalized primarily by means of the application of indigenous motifs. The Brazilian Modernists created their own manifestations of the style, particularly in illustration and graphic design. I make this analysis by utilizing primary source materials to demonstrate the style’s prominence in Brazilian Modernism and by exploring the handcrafted and mechanical techniques used to produce the movement’s printed texts. I explore the origins of the Art Deco style and the decorative arts field and determine the sources for the style, specifically avant-garde, primitivist, and erotic sources, to demonstrate the style’s elasticity. Its elasticity allowed it to be nationalized on a global scale during the 1920s; by the 1930s, however, many fascist-leaning forces co- opted the style for their own projects. I examine the architectural field in the Brazil during the 1920s.
