Modern Art Collection
All stages of Brazilian modernism
The desire to produce a national art bringing together influences from the new artistic styles of Europe from the beginning of the 20th century made Modernism a watershed in Brazilian art. The Palaces Collection has some of the most important artists of the period, such as Anita Malfatti, Tarsila do Amaral, Di Cavalcanti, Victor Brecheret, Candido Portinari, Alfredo Volpi, among others, bringing paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures together.
