| Author: | Jackson, K. David |
| Abstract: | The Brazilian modernist movement, from its early development circa 1917 through its ftrst creative phase ending in 1929, encompassed the fine arts as well as literature in a broad attempt to renovate artistic and intellectuallife. The Week of Modern Art celebrated in the Municipal Theater of Sáo Paulo from 11 to 18 February 1922 was a focal point for the critical spirit seeking to redefine artistic values and stood as a symbol of a new expressive and interpretive tradition that would profoundly alter Brazilian writing. |
