Description

With editorial coordination of choreographer and actor João Lima, son of noted artist Rodolfo Mesquita, who lives in Barcelona, the book comprises critical texts of various artists and art specialists, such as João Câmara, Montez Magno, Ismael Caldas, Clarissa Diniz (former editor of magazine Tatuí and Content Manager of the of the Museu de Arte do Rio - MAR) and Maria do Carmo Nino (Professor, Department of Fine Arts of Universidade Federal de Pernambuco - UFPE). This edition is an unprecedented collection, profound and exhausitive of the legacy of the artist, who, when 10 years of age, won a drawing contest sponsored by the public schools of São Paulo, a city where for some years he lived with the family. This is the first of a series of books about artists from Pernambuco. Known mainly for his strong critical content about human behavior, expressionist painter Mesquita was one of the most revered and influential personages in artistic circle in the State of Pernambuco, despite being quite reclusive.
