Little bit about Modern Art in Brazil

 At the end of 1940s, the state of São Paulo was already producing consumer goods in large scale to attend the country's needs. As what it comes to the artistic scene, however, Brazilian's most notable realization had been the Week of Modern Art, in 1922, not fully comprehended by Brazilian society yet. In this context, Assis Chateaubriand, founder and owner of the Diários Associados (Associated Dailies), the largest media and press conglomerate of Brazil, idealized the creation of a museum in innovating patterns, which should work as a dynamic center of cultural diffusion and creation. Chateaubriand intended to establish the museum in Rio de Janeiro, but he chose São Paulo because he believed it would be easier to raise the necessary resources to found the museum in this city, since São Paulo was experiencing a prosperous moment as consequence of the growing industrialization and coffee plantations.At that time, the European art market was deeply influenced by the end of World War II, making it possible to acquire great works of art for reasonable prices. With that purpose, Chateaubriand invited Pietro Maria Bardi, an Italian professor and art critic - and also a skilled art dealer - to help him in the gathering of the collection. Planning to lead the project for only a year, Bardi would dedicate the rest of his life to it. He moved to Brazil, together with his wife, the architect Lina Bo Bardi, and brought along his private collection of Italian paintings and antiquities. (font: wikipedia 2008)
